| Leader-mw | Introduction to 2-8G16-Way power divider |
LPD-2/8-16S is a 16-way power divider from Leader-MW (Leader Microwave), covering the 2–8 GHz broadband range. It splits one input signal into 16 equal-amplitude, equal-phase outputs, and can also be used in reverse as a 16-to-1 combiner
-Frequency range: 2–8 GHz, an octave-plus bandwidth suited to wideband systems.
- Configuration: 16-way (16 output ports), designated by the "16S" suffix.
- Impedance: 50 Ω standard, with SMA or N-type connectors depending on option.
- Typical specs: insertion loss roughly 3.9 dB above the theoretical 12 dB split loss, amplitude balance within about ±0.5 dB, phase balance within a few degrees, and isolation typically 16–22 dB between output ports.
- Construction: stripline/microstrip design in a shielded metal housing for stable performance and EMI suppression.
Typical applications include phased-array antenna feeds, beamforming networks, RF test benches, signal distribution in radar and electronic warfare systems, and multi-channel receiver/transmitter chains where coherent signal splitting is required.
For exact insertion loss, VSWR, isolation, power handling, and connector options, consult the official Leader-MW datasheet, as specifications vary by revision and configuration.
