Abstract
A SMT compatible 40 GHz discrete mixer in LTCC is proposed. A novel filter structure was implemented in a buried layer, which serves as a balun for a discrete balanced mixer at the same time. The design approach scales very well with frequency and stopband specification and allow the design of compact low cost modules.
