ADL5308 Overview
The ADL5308 is a logarithmic transimpedance amplifier optimized for wide dynamic range signal level monitoring in fiber optic systems. It produces an accurate, temperature-pensated output voltage proportional to the logarithm of the ratio between the input current at pin INP, and a reference current. The reference current can either be generated internally or externally provided through the IREF interface (LOG-ratio...
