Application Information
The X3C06A4-03S is an “X” style 3dB (hybrid) coupler. Port configurations are defined in the table on page 2 of this
data sheet and an example driving port 1 is shown below.

The hybrid coupler can also be used to combine two signals that are applied with equal amplitudes and phase
quadrature (90º phase difference). An example of this function is illustrated below.

3dB couplers have applications in circuits which require splitting an applied signal into 2, 4, 8 and higher binary
outputs. The couplers can also be used to combine multiple signals (inputs) at one output port. Some splitting and
combining schemes are illustrated below:
