The HMC1094LP3E Logarithmic Detector converts RF signals at its input, to a proportional DC voltage at its output. The HMC1094LP3E employs successive compression topology which delivers high dynamic range over a wide input frequency range. As the input power is increased, successive amplifiers move into saturation one by one creating an approximation of the logarithm function. The output of a series of detectors is summed, converted into the voltage domain and buffered to drive the LOGOUT output. The HMC1094LP3E provides a nominal logarithmic slope of +18 mV/dB and an intercept of -113 dBm at 23 GHz. Ideal as a log detector for high volume microwave radio and VSAT applications, the HMC1094LP3E is housed in a compact 3x3 mm RoHS compliant SMT plastic package.
