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 consump-
tion 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 ampli-
tude of a 1 V rms sine wave) that is, an amplitude of about
is accurately scaled, with a log slope of 24 mV/dB and an intercept
of –108 dBV; the scaling parameters are supply- and temperature-
independent. The fully-differential input offers a moderately
high impedance (1 k
network can match the input to 50
40 V, up to +4 dBV (or 2.2 V). The demodulated output

sensitivity of to –78 dBm to +17 dBm. The logarithmic linearity
is typically within 0.4 dB up to 100 MHz 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.
