Radio frequency transformer and its use

摘要

A radio frequency transformer has the two lines which constitute it on at least four levels of a printed circuit. Two of the four levels correspond to each line. In one variant the lines are wrapped onto a cube. The levels corresponding to one line are interleaved with the levels corresponding to the other one. The transformer has two input ports, one of which is connected to ground, and two output ports. This reduces the area and therefore the cost of the circuit or provides the facility to mount other components and thus other functions.
