Abstract
A balun is enhanced with design features that extend the operational bandwidth of the balun allowing the balun to operate at lower frequencies. The design enhancements also suppress resonances that otherwise cause sudden power drops at a resonance frequency while a load is connected between the balun's differential outputs.
