■ DESCRIPTION
The LT®5538 is a 40MHz to 3800MHz monolithic logarithmic RF power detector, capable of measuring RF signals
over a wide dynamic range, from –75dBm to 10dBm. The
RF signal in an equivalent decibel-scaled value is precisely
converted into DC voltage on a linear scale. The wide linear
dynamic range is achieved by measuring the RF signal using cascaded RF limiters and RF detectors. Their outputs
are summed to generate an accurate linear DC voltage
proportional to the input RF signal in dBm. The LT5538
delivers superior temperature stable output (within ±1dB
over full temperature range) from 40MHz to 3.8GHz. The …
