RMS power detector touts 10GHz, 67 dB measurement range

The ADL5906 RF detector is well-suited for a variety of applications that require an accurate RMS measurement of signal power including communications infrastructure, power amplifier linearisation, Point-to-Point and Point-to-MultiPoint, cable, military, satellite, instrumentation equipment and ISM band transmitters.

ADI's latest product is ideal for use in applications requiring an accurate RMS measurement of signal power, including communications infrastructure, power amplifier linearisation, Point-to-Point and Point-to-multi-point, cable, military, satellite, instrumentation and ISM band transmitters.

Requiring only a single supply of 5V and a few capacitors, the new ADL5906 power detector is easy-to-use and capable of being driven with a single-ended or differential input drive. Furthermore, the ADL5906 provides low temperature drift across a broad -55°C to +125°C that is highly repeatable from part-to-part, thereby reducing design risk and manufacturing costs.
