Abstract
A phase modulator for a microwave band having a desirable modulation characteristic by maintaining the impedance thereof constant, includes two PIN diodes 2 and 3 connected to a merchant balun 1 and a bias circuit 18 which supplies bias voltages to the PIN diodes 2 and 3 such that the sum of the bias voltages applied to the diodes 2 and 3 is constant. The bias voltages are selected so as to have the input and output impedances to be in the most stable state when a modulation signal is equal to zero.
