Model 5340-10dB
Pick-Off Tee
10 dB
50 ps, 8 GHz
Z-matched
The Model 5340-10dB is a broadband, resistive, Pick-Off,
Power Divider Tee. The pick-off port 3 output is a small
replica of the signal passing through the tee. The 5340 is an
impedance-matched tee consisting of three precision, 1%
tolerance resistors. The 5340s input/output impedance seen
either on port 1 or port 2 is precisely 50 W.
Notes
[1] PSPL does not recommend using the pick-off tee for input signals with risetimes faster than 80 ps. This tee can be used with
faster risetimes, but there will be waveform distortions. With faster risetimes, either the thru-line bandwidth is insufficient and/or
the pick-off output will no longer be a faithful representation of the input signal. The pick-off output risetime will be too fast and there
will be some overshoot and ringing.
[2] All parameters listed in this table are typical. All DC specs. are guaranteed and are based upon resistor tolerances and using
50.00 W source and load impedances.
[3] DC max/min specifications are guaranteed. PSPL also tests the S21, S31 and S11 frequency responses and confirms they
are similar to the typical values listed here. All other parameters are typical only.
