The present invention provides a filter that may be used as a reconstruction filter with a built-in balun. One embodiment of the filter includes first and second input nodes for receiving balanced radiofrequency signals and an inductive-capacitive (LC) circuit coupled between the first and second input nodes and first and second intermediate nodes. This embodiment of the filter also includes a coupling circuit that couples the first and second intermediate nodes to an output node. Balanced signals within a filter bandwidth are transmitted from the first and second input nodes to the output node and balanced signals outside the filter bandwidth are substantially shorted to ground.
