This calculator determines the total loss in an N-way power divider based on the number of output ports and the path loss per division. It helps evaluate signal distribution efficiency in RF systems.
PINCH OFF VOLTAGE – pinch off voltage in jfet
Formulas
LossN = 10 * log10(N)
CMOS PMOS NMOS (nmos pmos and cmos)
Losstotal = LossN + Losspath
Formula Explanation
IS THERE ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PHOTODIODE AND…
- N represents the total number of output ports.
- Losspath is the path loss in dB per division.
- Losstotal gives the overall power reduction after division.
Example
Input: N = 4, Loss_path = 0.5 dB
Result: Losstotal = 10 * log10(4) + 0.5 = 6.51 dB
Who uses it
Useful for RF engineers designing power distribution networks in transmitters, receivers, and antenna arrays.
