Abstract
Various embodiments may provide a termination element for a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier module. The termination element may include a resistive body having a first end, a second end, and first and second edges running from the first end to the second end opposite one another. The termination element may further include a first ground contact coupling the first end of the resistive body to a ground potential, and a second ground contact coupling the second end of the resistive body to the ground potential. The termination element may further include a conductive contact extending into the resistive body through the first edge, wherein an end of the conductive contact that is closest to the second edge is remotely disposed from the second edge by a gap.
