nn Single-Ended RF Input The LT®5581 is a 10MHz to 6GHz, low power monolithic
precision RMS power detector. The RMS detector uses a
proprietary technique to accurately measure the RF power
from –34dBm to +6dBm (at 2.14GHz) of modulated signals
with a crest factor as high as 12dB. It outputs a DC voltage
in linear scale proportional to an RF input signal power
in dBm. The LT5581 is suitable for precision power measurement and control for a wide variety of RF standards,
including GSM/EDGE, CDMA, CDMA2000, W-CDMA,
TD-SCDMA, UMTS, LTE and WiMAX, etc. The final DC output is connected in series with an on-chip 300Ω resistor,
which enables further filtering of the output modulation
ripple with just a single off-chip capacitor. nn APPLICATIONS …
