resistive matching network
For a class I was asked to design the insides of a 'black box' matching network.
It is a very simple problem, but I am having some trouble with it.
I have a 600 Ohm generator load, and a 50 Ohm terminating load.
When looking into the box on either side the impedance has to be matched.
The 'box' has an attenuation of 3 dB and all of the elements have to be passive. The voltage source is a sine wave with an frequency that theoretically can range from 0 Hz to infinity.
We are supposed to make the innards of the box to these specifications. To me it looks like a matching network for a phone system, but I don't understand exactly how I am supposed to make the matching system. I thought about using a isolated transformer approach, but I'm pretty sure that their is a simpler way to solve the problem.
Thanks for the help
