The new ADL5920 detector represents a change to conventional approaches by integrating a directional bridge-based coupler that results in an industry leading level of integration and bandwidth.
For space-critical applications, the ADL5920 integrates the coupling or sensing function with the detection function and provides an output that can drive a precision analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) directly.
For wideband operation or for frequency variants, the ADL5920 detector eliminates the need to choose a different directional coupler for each frequency. This integrated, wideband device supports smaller form factors and faster product time to market.
ADL5920 Product Highlights:
- Allows for coupled power measurements down to 9KHz
- Maximum input signal: +30dBm with handling capability for open and shorted loads
- Requires a 5V supply and draws 150mA
- Supplied in a 32-lead, 5x5mm LFCSP, for the operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C.
