This thesis is mainly composed of two parts. The first part is to introduce the planar transformer-based circuits and their applications. The mixed-mode S parameters and the grounding effects for planar transformers are discussed. A physical model has been developed for modeling the planar transformers. In the second part, a new coil winding technique for planar transformers has been presented to realize a high-efficiency planar transformer with arbitrary turn ratio for power-split/combine and phase-shift applications. Especially, the power-split/combine architecture based on a planar transformer of cellular shape is first presented in this thesis, enabling various kinds of passive components to be widely realized using the integrated passive device processes. As an example, this thesis proposes a design procedure for high-efficiency balun component. Firstly, design a high Q transformer that considers the load impedance effects. Secondly, design the ground reference for un-balanced signal on the virtual ground symmetry axis for balanced signals. Thirdly, design impedance matching networks for minimizing un-balanced and balanced port return losses. Then, a high performance planar transformer-based balun design can be done.
