The Wilkinson design can also be used as a power combiner because it is made up of passive components and hence reciprocal.

An electronic circuit consisting entirely of passive components is called a passive circuit ( and has the same properties as a passive component ).

The Sallen Key topology uses active and passive components ( noninverting buffers, usually op amps, resistors, and capacitors ) to implement a linear analog filter.
25.
For example, a memory cell of the 1940s consisted of two triodes and a dozen passive components and ran at frequencies up to 200 kHz.
26.
They also contained tables of values showing how to implement such filters as RLC ladders-very useful when amplifying elements were expensive compared to passive components.
27.
The newer subminiature Xinger line of passive components are used in consumer devices such as cell phones, PDAs, wireless laptops, WLANS, Bluetooth applications, and set-top boxes.
28.
Most passive components with more than two terminals can be described in terms of two-port parameters that satisfy the principle of reciprocity though there are rare exceptions.
29.
It is now possible, even with the smallest passive components and largest fine-pitch packages, to have boards fabricated, assembled, and even tested in a matter of days.
30.
These at their simplest consist of passive components such as potentiometers and capacitors, but may also include specialized integrated circuits or other active components requiring electronic tuning.
