0.1GHz to 3GHz, 75dB Logarithmic
Detector/Controller
Detailed Description
The MAX2015 is a successive detection logarithmic
amplifier designed for use in RF power measurement
and AGC applications with a 0.1GHz to 3GHz
frequency range from a single 2.7V to 3.6V power
supply. It is pin compatible with other leading logarith-
mic amplifiers.
The MAX2015 provides for improved performance with a
high 75dB dynamic range at 100MHz, and exceptional
accuracy over the extended temperature range and sup-
ply voltage range.
RF Input
The MAX2015 differential RF input (INHI, INLO) allows
for broadband signals between 100MHz and 3GHz. For
single-ended signals, AC-couple INLO to ground. The
RF inputs are internally biased and need to be AC-cou-
pled using 680pF capacitors as shown in Figure 1 and
Figure 2. An internal 50 ? resistor between INHI and
INLO provides a good 50MHz to 3.0GHz match.
SET Input
Applications Information
Detector (RSSI) Mode
In detector mode, the MAX2015 acts like an RSSI,
which provides an output voltage proportional to the
input power. This is accomplished by providing a feed-
back path from OUT to SET (R1 = 0 ? ; see Figure 1).
By connecting SET directly to OUT, the op amp gain is
set to 2V/V due to two internal 20k ? feedback resistors.
This provides a detector slope of approximately
18mV/dB with a 0.5V to 1.8V output range.
Controller Mode
The MAX2015 can also be used as a detector/controller
within an AGC loop. Figure 3 depicts one scenario
where the MAX2015 is employed as the controller for a
variable-gain PA. As shown in the figure, the MAX2015
monitors the output of the PA through a directional cou-
pler. An internal integrator (Figure 2) compares the
V S
The SET input is used for loop control when in controller
mode or to set the slope of the output signal (mV/dB)
when in detector mode. The internal input structure of
SET is two series 20k ? resistors connected to ground.
