    Abstract: A delay circuit for the secondary path of a feed-forward high power amplifier is disclosed. A first 3 dB quadrature hybrid coupler is coupled to first and second resonator circuits that each includes a varactor circuit and are resonant at a first resonant frequency. The output of the first hybrid coupler is coupled to the input of a second 3 dB quadrature hybrid coupler. The second hybrid coupler is coupled to third and fourth resonator circuits that each includes a varactor circuit and are resonant at a second resonant frequency that is greater than the first resonant frequency. The overall combined delay response of the first hybrid coupler and the second hybrid coupler appearing at the fourth node of the second hybrid coupler is substantially constant between the first resonant frequency and the second resonant frequency.

    Abstract: A bandpass filter having three waveguide cavities probelessly coupled in a tri-section for producing an asymmetric response about a passband. In another aspect, the bandpass filter also includes first and second waveguide tri-sections coupled in series via a common waveguide cavity, providing a bandpass waveguide filter having transmission zeros on only one side a filter passband.

    Abstract: A high power, low passive inter-modulation capacitor is presented, which is formed using metal clad substrates, which are broad-side coupled through a thin air gap. Each substrate may include metal layers affixed on both sides which are electrical coupled together to form a single capacitor plate, or each substrate may have only a single metal layer on the surface adjacent to the air gap. The capacitor has particular application in low cost RF and microwave filters, which may be used in communication equipment and communication test equipment such a diplexers, for low PIM applications.

    Abstract: A filter, for use with a delay compensating circuit in a delay line filter, formed from co-located capacitors. The capacitors may be formed as traces disposed on a circuit card and co-located to provide capacitive coupling to each other and ground. Proximity coupling wires are connected at one end to capacitive traces, and at the other end hang in mid-air above the next adjacent capacitive trace. The distance between each proximity coupling wire and the neighboring capacitive trace can be varied to control the capacitance coupling between neighboring capacitive traces. The filter is thus tuned by controlling the distances between the proximity coupling wires, and by squeezing or stretching the inductors. The shunt coils control the frequency of the filter, while the series of capacitive traces control the bandwidth.

    Abstract: A cavity filter device includes a micro-strip structure comprising a low dielectric organic material forming a printed wiring board. The printed wiring board may be soldered, welded, or adhered to the base of one or more cavity filters. The cavity filter may include a coupling pin such as a RF pin positioned at the base of the filter. The micro-strip structure may be configured to carry a RF signal from the input, across the micro-strip structure to the RF pin positioned at the base of the filter.
