Table For Pi and T- type pads


The table above is used to homebrew attenuator pads. You may use nearest standard resistor values, or parallel/series 2 or more values to get close to the design resistances, 1% or 5% parts might be used. The choice is yours to make. Some pad values such as the 8 dB T-type or the 4, 14 and 19 dB Pi-type are very close to standard value parts and are favored on this web site.
