RF combiner - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

There are several well known topologies. These are easily available in textbooks, ham radio books, or even with the internet.

The most common and simple combiner to use is Wilkinson.

check out minicircuit's app note.

For those frequencies a core and wire version will work best. I just design one last month at those frequencies with good results.
