So I have a bunch of these mini-circuits splitters that cover 500 - 2000
Mhz. It has continuity on all ports. Has anyone tried something like this to
use
a single GPS antenna on 2 receivers? They both put out 5 volts on the center
pin. Maybe a cap on one of the ports?
Hi,
I use a resistive DC-4GHz minicircuits splitters with success, both antenna
ports providing 5V.
I also have used just a simple BNC TEE surprisingly without any problems
whatsoever. Sometimes that works better than an Agilent 1-to-2 splitter since it
doesen't add any amplifier noise.
Don't connect a 3V configured GPS with a 5V one though even though the ports
are usually overcurrent protected.
bye,
Said
