Abstract :
A simple, low-cost, 20-GHz MMIC/MIC-to-waveguide septum-type transition is described for rectangular, square, or circular waveguides operating in single- or dual-polarization modes. The MMIC is attached to a dielectric substrate surface with a circuit that transforms the waveguide impedance to that of the MMIC. Good insertion loss, return loss, and cross polarization are measured.
