Part Number : AD8318
Function : 1 MHz to 8 GHz, 70 dB, Logarithmic Detector/Controller
Package : Small footprint LFCSP 16 Pin Type
Maker : Analog Devices
Pinouts : 
Description :
The AD8318 is a demodulating logarithmic amplifier, capableof accurately converting an RF input signal to a correspondingdecibel-scaled output voltage. It employs the progressive compression technique over a cascaded amplifier chain, each stage of which is equipped with a detector cell. The device is used in measurement or controller mode. The features maintains accurate log conformance for signals of 1 MHz to 6 GHz and provides useful operation to 8 GHz. The input range is typically 60 dB (re: 50 Ω) with error less than ±1 dB. The AD8318 has a 10 ns response time that enables RF burst detection to beyond 45 MHz. The device provides unprece dented logarithmic intercept stability vs. ambient temperature conditions. A 2 mV/°C slope temperature sensor output is also provided for additional system monitoring. A single supply of 5 V is required. Current consumption is typically 68 mA. Power consumption decreases to <1.5 mW when the device is disabled.
