Abstract
A phase shifter, which can switch between a phase delay circuit and a phase leading circuit consisting of inductors and capacitors, is constituted by disposing FETs having inductors or capacitors arranged in parallel with the source and drain electrodes of each FET connected and controlling a bias voltage to be applied to the gate electrodes of the FETs to switch between the on and off conditions of the FETs. Thus, a phase shifter obtained has a small frequency characteristic.
