PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8310 is a complete, dc-440 MHz demodulating logarithmic amplifier (log amp) with a very fast voltage-mode output capable of driving up to 25 mA into a grounded load in under 15 ns. It uses the progressive compression (successive detection) technique to provide a dynamic range of up to 95 dB to ±3 dB law-conformance, or 90 dB to a ±1 dB error bound up to 100 MHz. It is extremely stable and easy to use, requiring no significant external components. A single supply voltage of 2.7 V to 5.5 V at 8 mA is needed, corresponding to a power consumption of only 24 mW at 3 V. A fast-acting CMOS-compatible enable pin is provided. Each of the six cascaded amplifier/limiter cells has a small-signal gain of 14.3 dB, with a 3 dB bandwidth of 900 MHz. A total of nine detector cells are used, to provide a dynamic range that extends from 91 dBV (where 0 dBV is defined as the amplitude of a 1 V rms sine wave) that is, an amplitude of about ± 40 µV, up to +4 dBV (or ± 2.2 V). The demodulated output is accurately scaled, with a log slope of 24 mV/dB and an intercept of 108 dBV; the scaling parameters are supply- and temperatureindependent. The fully-differential input offers a moderately high impedance (1 k in parallel with about 1 pF). A simple n e t w o r k can match the input to 50 and provide a power
sensitivity of to 78 dBm to +17 dBm. The logarithmic linearity is typically within ± 0.4 dB up to 100 M H z over the central portion of the range, but is somewhat greater at 440 MHz. There is no minimum frequency limit; the AD8310 may be used down to low audio frequencies. Special filtering features are provided to support this wide range. The output voltage runs from a noise-limited lower boundary of 400 mV to an upper limit within 200 mV of the supply voltage for light loads. The slope and intercept can be readily altered using external resistors. The output is tolerant of a wide variety of load conditions and is stable with capacitive loads of 100 pF. The AD8310 provides a unique combination of low cost, small size, small power consumption, high accuracy and stability, high dynamic range, a frequency range encompassing audio to UHF, fast response time and good load-driving capabilities, making this product useful in numerous applications requiring the reduction of a signal to its decibel equivalent. The AD8310 is available in the industrial temperature range of 40°C to +85°C, in an 8-lead Mini_SO package.

NOTES 1 The input level is specified in "dBV" since logarithmic amplifiers respond strictly to voltage, not power. 0 dBV corresponds to a sinusoidal single-frequency input of 1 V rms. A power level of 0 dBm (1 mW) in a 50 termination corresponds to an input of 0.2236 V rms. Hence, the relationship between dBV and dBm is a fixed offset of 13 dBm in the special case of a 50 termination. 2 Guaranteed but not tested; limits are specified at six sigma levels. Specifications subject to change without notice.

CAUTION ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the AD8310 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
