Linear Technology LTC5531
Precision 300MHz to 7GHz RF Detector
FEATURES
s s s s s s s s s DESCRIPTIO Temperature Compensated Internal Schottky Diode RF Detector Wide Input Frequency Range: 300MHz to 7GHz* Wide Input Power Range: –32dBm to 10dBm Buffered Detector Output Precision VOUT Offset Control Wide VCC Range of 2.7V to 6V Low Operating Current: 500µA Low Shutdown Current: <2µA Available in a Low Profile (1mm) SOT-23 Package The LTC®5531 is an RF power detector for RF applications operating in the 300MHz to 7GHz range. A temperature compensated Schottky diode peak detector and buffer amplifier are combined in a small ThinSOTTM package. The supply voltage range is optimized for operation from a single lithium-ion cell or 3xNiMH. The RF input voltage is peak detected using an on-chip Schottky diode. The detected voltage is buffered and supplied to the VOUT pin. A power saving shutdown mode reduces current to less than 2µA. The initial offset voltage of 120mV ±35mV can be precisely adjusted using the VOS pin. The LTC5531 operates with input power levels from –32dBm to 10dBm. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
