#279 In this video I look at one of the most well know types of transmission line signal splitters - the Wilkinson. Its a 0 degrees signal splitter that can be built with multiple branches, but the most common implementation contains only 2. I look at the basic splitter as well as a derivative that can be used when the transmission line impedances available are not the exact values that result from the calculations - like when you build from coax.
