A binary resistive divider network has been found which utilizes N cascaded DPDT reversing switches plus one SPDT switch for an N-bit divider. The network features a simple and accurate method for internal calibration. With a fixed divider input voltage the power dissipated in each resistive element is independent of switch setting.
