Matching Transformers (50-to-75 ohms)
MT- 50/75 - 50 ohms to 75 ohms broadband impedance transformer
MT-50/75 is designed to impedance match a 75ohm device, such as RF filter
or amplifier, to a 50ohm system. This prevents mismatch and signal reflection.
It is a cost-efficient solution to convert a 75ohm signal for a 50ohm measurement, or
vice versa, for measurement or transformation purposes. It does this with good return
loss to improve measurement accuracy. A further advantage of this matching
transformer is that it features a low through loss, preserving much more of your input
signal than a matching pad (6 dB) would.
