Input Power
W
Ideal resistor networks with equal, real source and load impedances. Input power is power delivered into the matched pad. Resistor dissipation is calculated, not a component power rating; tolerances, parasitics, frequency response and derating are excluded.
Power Output: -- W | Total Dissipated: -- W
