I've used resistors from State of the Art in State College Pennsylvania up
to 20Ghz.  They are thin film devices and intended for RF usage.

Standard 1206, 0805 resistors will say goodbye long before 2 Ghz is
reached.

If you check around, there are probably other sources of RF resistors... I
know ATC does a lot of caps, not sure if they have expanded their line into
resistors.


Good luck,

Scott F. Touchton

I think you have only a choice: to try.
However, you need a non inductive resistive device.
