RF Splitter - Combiner

This is a low loss RF splitter-combiner from 500 kHz to 80 MHz. It can be used to split an antenna for two receivers or as a splitter - combiner in measurement purpose etc. The enclosure is build by soldering bare FR4 pieces together.

Ferrite transformers windings.
Trifilar means 3 wires Twisted together. Bifilar means 2 wires Twisted together. You can find the start and end of each winding with an ohm meter (continuity beep mode). Refer to schenmatics for other connections.

Measured performance
- Transmission loss from 500 kHz to 80 MHz is very near the theoretical 3dB
- Isolation better than 35dB
- Good 50 ohm matching on each port

This device can be used as a RF splitter or combiner in many applications up 30W RF power level
