PSPL5336 -- 6 dB Power Splitter, 20 GHz, Datasheet

PSPL5336 Datasheet

The PSPL5336 6 dB Power Splitter is a very broadband, resistive tee. It is useful for splitting a signal into two identical signals. The output is attenuated by 6 dB. This is an impedance-matched tee that presents a 50 Ω input impedance when both outputs are terminated in 50 Ω. Power splitter tees are built using two 50 Ω resistors and present a 50 Ω impedance only at the input port. The resistors in this tee have 1% tolerance so it has excellent symmetry and very close impedance match to 50 Ω. It has a rise time of 20 ps and bandwidth from DC to >20 GHz.

Typical performance

Frequency responses from 40 MHz to 20 GHz, linear sweep at 2 GHz/div.
