Abstract:
1. A coaxial impedance matching adapter, comprising: a body portion with a cavity; a cap portion; the cap portion configured to mate with the body portion to close the cavity; an inner conductor bore formed in each of the cap portion and the body portion; a printed circuit board seated within the cavity; the printed circuit board provided with a trace on a first side and a ground plane on a second side; the trace coupled to a first contact at a first end of the printed circuit board and a second contact at a second end of the printed circuit board; the trace having a sinuous path between the first contact and the second contact, the path longer than a longitudinal axis length of the printed circuit board; a width of the trace narrowing between the first end of the printed circuit board and the second end of the printed circuit board; the first contact supported coaxial within the inner conductor bore of the cap portion by a first end insulator; the second contact supported coaxial within the inner conductor bore of the body portion by a second end insulator; and the ground plane coupled to the body portion and the cap portion.
