rF hybrids System Manual Input Port (ct) Input V / 2 Port Figure 2–1. resistive hybrid. A basic balanced hybrid can be used to illustrate turns ratio, which in this case is 2 to 1. The voltage how it isolates two inputs from one another and V will divide equally between the 25 ohm resistor matches impedances as shown in Figure 2–1.

Chapter 2. Purpose, Basic operation & Testing 2.2 Ideal Hybrid Characteristics • Two input ports are completely isolated from one another. • Two input ports have no loss to the output port. • Internal balance port Z = Output port’s connected Z (There is infinite isolation for inputs when these impedances are exactly equal.) Input 1 TX Path...
