I need to implement a resonator using a microstrip. I cannot use short circuited stubs. I thought of using an open circuited one but the performance is not good. Is there any other resonator that i can use.
One more thing is a 1nH inductor available for use at 12 GHz ?
Re: Resonator Using Microstrip line -- No short circuit stub
Shunt distributed microstrip inductor cannot be realized using open stub.
Try to integrate somehow in your circuit the shorted stub necessarily to make the equivalent inductor.

Thanks for all the tips.
That 0402 inductors did work but did not give me the performance I needed, I instead used a Coupled line section for the resonator.....
I have a small doubt in ADS what is the difference between MCLIN and MCFIN in coupled lines. ADS documents dont say anything about the difference between them
Re: Resonator Using Microstrip line -- No short circuit stub
Some publishers specify that MCLIN behave better in high frequency-domain simulation, when MCFIL in time-domain simulation.
In a real-life high frequency design proper loading of the unused ports of MCLIN could make the difference.
