Product Details

The AD8361 is a mean-responding power detector for use in high frequency receiver and transmitter signal chains, up to 2.5 GHz. It is very easy to apply. It requires a single supply only between 2.7 V and 5.5 V, a power supply decoupling capacitor, and an input coupling capacitor in most applications. The output is a linear-responding dc voltage with a conversion gain of 7.5 V/V rms. An external filter capacitor can be added to increase the averaging time constant.

The AD8361 is intended for true power measurement of simple and complex waveforms. The device is particularly useful for measuring high crest-factor (high peak-to-rms ratio) signals, such as CDMA and W-CDMA. The AD8361 has three operating modes to accommodate a variety of analog-to-digital converter requirements:

  1. Ground reference mode, in which the origin is zero.
  2. Internal reference mode, which offsets the output 350 mV above ground.
  3. Supply reference mode, which offsets the output to VS/7.5.

The AD8361 is specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C and is available in 8-lead MSOP and 6-lead SOT-23 packages. It is fabricated on a proprietary high fT silicon bipolar process.

    ADIsimPLL™

    ADIsimPLL enables the rapid and reliable evaluation of new high performance PLL products from ADI. It is the most comprehensive PLL Synthesizer design and simulation tool available today. Simulations performed include all key non-linear effects that are significant in affecting PLL performance. ADIsimPLL removes at least one iteration from the design process, thereby speeding the design- to-market.

    ADIsimRF

    ADIsimRF is an easy-to-use RF signal chain calculator. Cascaded gain, noise, distortion and power consumption can be calculated, plotted and exported for signal chains with up to 50 stages. ADIsimRF also includes an extensive data base of device models for ADI’s RF and mixed signal components.
