Hybrid

(Junction) A transformer or waveguide circuit having four terminals (or four ports) so arranged that a signal entering at one terminal will divide and emerge from the two adjacent terminals but will be unable to reach the opposite terminal. Hybrid Junctions (quadrature hybrids) are widely used in microwave circuits as power dividers and combiners (e.g., in balanced amplifiers, double-balanced mixers).
