Low Cost, DC to 500MHz, 92dB Logarithmic Amplifier
The AD8307 is the first logarithmic amplifier made available in an 8-lead (SOIC_N) package. It is a complete 500MHz monolithic demodulating logarithmic amplifier based on the progressive compression (successive detection) technique, providing a dynamic range of 92dB to +/-3dB law-conformance and 88dB to a tight +/-1dB error bound at all frequencies up to 100MHz. It is extremely stable and easy to use, requiring no significant external components. A single-supply voltage of 2.7V to 5.5V at 7.5mA is needed, corresponding to an unprecedented power consumption of only 22.5mW at 3V. A fast acting CMOScompatible control pin can disable the AD8307 to a standby current of less than 150uA.
