Abstract
A refrection type and loaded-line type phase shifter switching multi p hase-states has been described. This novel phase shifter circuit is co nstructed by adding switching FETs to a conventional 2-phase-state pha se shifter. A conventional 3 bit phase shifter can be replaced by this type of phase shifter. The total chip size is reduced to 2/3. This pa per reports on the design, fabrication, and performance of the novel r eflection-type and loaded-line-type phase shifter MMICs.
