A load bank simulates real-world conditions by applying controlled loads to power systems, typically ranging from 100 kW to 2 MW, allowing detailed performance testing. In contrast, a dummy load absorbs power without measurement capabilities, usually rated at 50 to 1,000 watts, used primarily for RF applications. Load banks provide critical data, while dummy loads […]

An RF termination is a passive component designed to absorb excess signal power in RF systems, typically with an impedance of 50 ohms. For example, a 100-watt RF termination can manage signals up to 18 GHz while maintaining a return loss greater than 20 dB, ensuring only 1% of the signal reflects back for optimal
