SELF COMPENSATED DIRECTIONAL COUPLER

摘要

A self-compensated strip-coupled directional coupler. In one example, the self-compensated directional coupler includes a main arm formed in a single first layer of a multi-layer substrate, and a coupled arm formed in a single second layer of the multi-layer substrate. One of the coupled arm and the main arm includes a zigzag structure to compensate for misalignment between the first and second layers that can occur during manufacturing.
