PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Log/limiting amplifier which can operate over an input
frequency range of 100MHz to 500MHz. Producing a log/lin
characteristic for input signals between -64dBm and +6dBm,
the log amplifier can provide an accuracy of better than
accuracy of better than 1.25dB at +125 C. The dynamic
range is better than 75dB over a frequency range of 100MHz
to 400MHz. The graph in fig 4 shows how the dynamic range
is guaranteed over frequency.
a limiting RF Output buffer and a Video Output amplifier. The
power supply connections to each section are isolated from
each other to aid stability.
the circuit are powered up from a 5.0V power supply. As the
circuit uses a differential architecture, the power consumption
of the RF gain/detector stages and RF Output Buffer will be
independent of RF input signal level. However, the Video
Output (pin 13) is driven by a single ended emitter follower and
so the power consumption of the Video amplifier will vary with
RF input signal level between pins 27 and 28.(upto 10mA over
2V video output range with max video load of 200 //20pF) The
SL3522 has a high RF gain (>50dB) across a wide bandwidth
(>450MHz) when the limiting RF Output Buffer is enabled. The
limiting RF Output Buffer provides a balanced Limited Output
level of nominally –1.0dBm on each RF Output connection (pin
9 and 10), for RF input signal levels on pins 27 and 28 in excess
of –50dBm.

Buffer GND (pin 8) from 0V, and leave the pin floating. This
feature aids stability in applications NOT requiring a Limited RF
Output signal, and lowers the power consumption of the
SL3522 to 0.95Watts, when the other sections are powered up
from a 5.0V power supply.

decoupling (200pF per stage), also to aid stability. The Video
amplifier provides a positive going output signal proportional to
the log of the amplitude of an RF input applied between pins 27
and 28. The gain and the offset of the Video amplifier can be
adjusted by 3 resistors; R
