Abstract:
1. A power splitter comprising: a) a substrate having a top layer, a bottom layer, and a plurality of inner layers; b) a resistor formed on the top layer; c) a capacitor formed between one of the inner layers; d) a plurality of terminals located on the top layer; e) a plurality of vias extending through the substrate, the vias electrically connecting the resistor, the capacitor and the terminals; f) a first transformer attached to the bottom layer, the first transformer having a first winding, the first winding extending from the first transformer on the bottom layer to the terminals on the top surface, the first winding electrically connected to the terminals; g) a second transformer attached to the bottom layer, the second transformer having a second winding, the second winding extending from the second transformer on the bottom layer to the terminals on the top surface, the second winding electrically connected to the terminals; h) a case having a cavity, a top surface and a lead mounting surface, the cavity defining four walls and a bottom surface, the cavity being exposed in order to provide access to the cavity; i) a plurality of leads secured to the lead mounting surface, the leads having a proxil end attached to the lead mounting surface and a distal end that extends outwardly from the case and downwardly away from the lead mounting surface, each lead including a lead extension which is embedded in one of the walls in order to secure the lead to the case; j) the substrate mounted within the cavity such that the first and second transformers are attached to the bottom surface; and k) a plurality of connector wires connected between the terminals and the leads.
