I would like to design a four-way
Wilkinson power splitter at 100 MHz. I would like to split the 1 W power
in to two Wilkinson splitters, starting the design on microstrip. The
four, quarter wavelength would be realised using 75-Ohm coaxial cable,
and each cable would terminate in to 50 Ohm. My question is could I
place the two 100-Ohm resistors at the start off each separate pair
of ¼ wavelength coaxial splits on the circuit board?
Thanks.
:oops:

Can I have more info to
help you. Are you saying to start with a characteristic impedance of
75 ohms and end it with 50 ohms?

I'm sure the Zo = 50ohms. For a Wilkinson Splitter the quarte wave
lines = Z = 50 * (SQRT)2.
Which is 70.7 ohms, 75 coax is usually
close enough.
The 4 100ohm resistor need to be between the outputs
of the spitters
to acheive good isolation.
That's my 1 cent

Sorry guys, you're on the wrong track
here - at 100Mhz use lumped elements , unless you like wasting money
on coax cable.
I have sucessfully used lumped element wilkos
at 500 MHz.
