요약없음 A three way oscillator signal power splitting circuit splits power provided at the output of a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (112). The circuit is implemented on a printed substrate section (210) having a first layer which includes a first conductor (124) for receiving the power from the VCO, a second layer having a second conductor (122), substantially parallel to and adjacent the first conductor, for receiving a portion of the power on the first main conductor via broadside coupling, and a third conductor (126), situated substantially parallel to and adjacent the first and second conductors, for receiving a portion of the power on the first main conductor also via broadside coupling. A ground conductor (212) is additionally included on the third layer for providing a ground reference for the first, second and third conductors, and resistors are used to terminate the second and third conductors.
