Abstract
A transition circuit is useful for coupling a first coplanar waveguide and a second coplanar waveguide disposed either on opposite sides of the same substrate or on different substrates. The first coplanar waveguide has a first signal conductor and a first pair of ground planes and the second coplanar waveguide has a second signal conductor and a second pair of ground planes. The transition circuit includes a signal interconnect coupling the first signal conductor to the second signal conductor and a pair of elongated interconnects coupling the first pair of ground planes to the second pair of ground planes. Each elongated interconnect is spaced from the signal interconnect.
