Differences in Application Between Power Dividers and Power Splitters Application Note Introduction Power dividers are an RF microwave accessory constructed with equivalent 50Ω resistance at each port. These accessories divide power of a uniform transmission line equally between ports to enable comparison measurements. Power dividers provide a good impedance match at both the output ports when the input is terminated in the system characteristic impedance (50Ω). Once a good source match has been

race towards computational efficiency, accelerators are achieving prominence. Among the different types, accelerators built using reconfigurable fabric, such as FPGAs, have a tremendous potential due to the ability to customize the hardware to the application. However, the lack of a standard design methodology hinders the adoption of such devices and makes difficult the portability and reusability across designs. In addition, generation of highly customized circuits does not integrate nicely with high
