1. An isolator/circulator circuit, comprising:
an analog input signal receiving port, configured for receiving an analog input signal; a divider element, electrically coupled to said analog input signal receiving port and configured for providing first and second analog divider output signals in response to said analog input signal received on said analog input signal receiving port, wherein said first and second analog divider output signals each have a phase that is shifted 90 degrees in phase relative to one another; a first phase shifter, said first phase shifter X3 electrically coupled to said second analog divider output of said divider element and to a reflected output signal received from a reflected output signal port, said first phase shifter configured for varying a phase of said second analog divider output of said divider element and said reflected output signal, and for providing a directly proportional phase variation signal to a second amplifier PA2; a delay element X1, electrically coupled to said first analog divider output of said divider element, and configured for providing a delay to said first analog divider output signal, said delay comprising of a predetermined period of time corresponding to a period of time delay introduced by said first phase shifter to said second analog divider output signal of said divider element when said first phase shifter phase shift is ZERO, and for providing an output signal to a first amplifier; and a combiner, electrically coupled to said outputs of each of said first and said second amplifiers, and configured for providing first and second combiner outputs, wherein said first and second combiner outputs (17, 19) are shifted 180 degrees in phase relative to one another, wherein said first combiner output is provided to an RF output port and wherein said second combiner output is provided to a load element. |
