LOG AMP THEORY Logarithmic amplifiers perform a more complex operation than that of classical linear amplifiers, and their circuitry is significantly different. A good grasp of what log amps do and how they work can prevent many pitfalls in their ...

AD8307 just dB. The logarithmic function disappears from the formula because the conversion has already been implicitly performed in stating the input in decibels. This is strictly a concession to popular convention; log amps manifestly do not respond to power ...

... INTERCEPT CALIBRATION All monolithic log amps from Analog Devices include accurate means to position the intercept voltage ,V a demodulating log amp). Using the scheme shown in Figure 26, the basic value of the intercept level departs considerably from that predicted by the simpler analyses given earlier ...

In the AD8307, this is achieved by an on-chip filter, providing sufficient suppression of HF feedback to allow operation above 1 MHz. To extend the range below this frequency, an external capacitor can be added. This permits the high-pass corner ...

AD8307 INTERFACES The AD8307 comprises six main amplifier/limiter stages, each having a gain of 14.3 dB and small signal bandwidth of 900 MHz; the overall gain with a −3 dB bandwidth of 500 MHz. These six cells ...

In most applications, the signal is single sided and can be applied to either Pin 1 or Pin 8, with the other pin ac-coupled to ground. Under these conditions, the largest input signal that can be handled by the AD8307 ...

AD8307 It can be desirable to increase the speed of the output response, with the penalty of increased ripple. One way to do this is by connecting a shunt load resistor from Pin OUT to ground, which raises the low-pass ...
Page 17
THEORY OF OPERATION The AD8307 has very high gain and a bandwidth from dc to over 1 GHz, at which frequency the gain of the main path is still over 60 dB. Consequently susceptible to all signals within ...

AD8307 INPUT MATCHING Where higher sensitivity is required, an input matching network is valuable. Using a transformer to achieve the impedance transformation also eliminates the need for coupling capacitors, which lowers the offset voltage generated directly at the input, and ...
Page 19
SLOPE AND INTERCEPT ADJUSTMENTS Where higher calibration accuracy is needed, the adjustments shown in Figure 37 can be used, either singly or in combination. The log slope is lowered to 20 mV/dB by shunting the nominally 12.5 kΩ on-chip load ...
