Abstract
A broadband impedance matching integrated circuit apparatus comprising an alternating current ground plane, a direct current ground plane positioned proximate to the alternating current ground plane, a first conductive transmission line positioned a distance from the alternating current and direct current ground planes, a dielectric material layer with a thickness positioned on the first conductive transmission line, a second conductive transmission line positioned on the dielectric material layer wherein the first and second conductive transmission lines are electrically interconnected to behave as an electromagnetically coupled tapped autotransformer.
