Electrical power dividing or combining, and impedance transforming, binary tree circuits for an optimized output or input port isolation or an optimized VSWR across a predetermined frequency band, or a desired compromise between them, having cascaded tiers of multi-port hybrid circuits with each hybrid circuit having a bridging impedance connected across its arrayed ports. The circuits are derived from an even-mode synthesis of a prototype circuit having equal-ripple input reflection coefficient response across the predetermined frequency band, the bridging impedance values for the arrayed ports of each hybrid circuit being determined in accordance with the desired relationship between VSWR and port isolation by an even and odd-mode analysis of each hybrid circuit.
