Keysight 11636A Operating and Service Manual 11
Introduction
From DC to 18 GHz, the 11636A provides excellent output power symmetry between the two
output ports. Low temperature and power coefficients ensure attenuation stability. Each power
divider is calibrated at four frequencies, and this data is provided on a sticker that is permanently
attached to the unit.
Stable interface dimensions, which ensure long life and a high repeatability of insertion loss, are
provided by injection molded interface connector insulators that maintain concentricity.
Any port may be used as an input, as the 11636A provides a symmetrical 6 dB division. The 11636A
can be used as a power combiner. When signals are input at two of the ports, the sum of the two
appears at the third.
