capacitors and frequency-dependent inductors. Because stubs take on reactive properties as a function of their electrical length‚ stubs are most common in UHF or microwave circuits where the line lengths are more manageable. Stubs are commonly used in antenna impedance matching circuits and frequency selective filters. Smith charts can also be used to determine what length line to use to obtain a desired reactance. In their simplest form‚ stubs that are some multiple of a quarter wavelengths are used
