Abstract
A DC-block includes a capacitor incorporated into a conductor, such as a center conductor of a coaxial structure. The DC block provides low insertion loss at high frequencies, and a low cutoff frequency. The small physical size and high capacitance of the DC block provides for a high self-resonant frequency and ultra-broadband performance.
Claims18
A direct-current block comprising:
- a first conductor half with a first overlapping portion extending along an axis;

- and
- a capacitor disposed between the first overlapping portion and the second overlapping portion and having
- a first plate electrically coupled to the first conductor half, and
- a second plate electrically coupled to the second conductor half.
