  • Abstract
    This paper presents a simple methodology for deducing the resistors of attenuators based on the relationship of S parameters and ABCD metric. Single attenuators composed of embedded thin film resistors simulate up to 20 GHz. For 30 dB attenuators is difficult to implement for wide bandwidth, cascade attenuators can solve the problem.
