Microstrip and striplines can be made by using monolithic, thin-film, and hybrid IC techniques to produce ________

Correct Answer : Option (B) :   Stripline

Explanation : At UHF and microwave frequencies the values of inductance and capacitance become so small that it is difficult to realize them physically with standard coils and capacitors. Special transmission lines constructed with copper patterns on a printed circuit board (PCB), called microstrip or stripline, can be used as tuned circuits, filters, phase shifters, reactive components, and impedance-matching circuits at these high frequencies.

Correct Answer : Option (D) :   Series resonant circuit

Explanation : If the line acts as a series resonant circuit, its impedance is zero. If the line is of such a length that it acts as a parallel resonant circuit, its impedance is near infinity. If the line is some intermediate length, it is reactive.

Correct Answer : Option (C) :   Length is between one quarter and one half of wavelength

Explanation : If the open transmission line is less than one-quarter wavelength, the generator sees a capacitance. If the line is between one-quarter and one-half wavelength, the generator sees an inductance. These characteristics repeat for lines that are some multiple of one-quarter or one-half wavelengths.
