Compute Low-Frequency Parameters of Resistive Attenuators with Three DC-Resistance Measurements (.PDF Download)

Feb. 21, 2017

While a network analyzer is normally used to measure attenuator characteristics, all low-frequency attenuator parameters may be derived from just three measurements of dc resistance. Figure 1 shows the tee (T) representation of the attenuator; note that the pi (π) representation can also be used, but requires more complex calculations...
