The LT1088 is a thermally based RMS-DC converter building block.  It converts the input waveform to heat. Using external circuitry, the thermal signal is expressed as a DC output voltage.

LTC's proprietary thermal packaging process permits accurate thermal signal processing in a standard IC package.  The thermal method provides far greater bandwidth than RMS converters based on logarithmic computing techniques. The LT1088's high voltage breakdown allows crest factor measurements of 50:1 and operation over a 20:1 input dynamic range. Resistive inputs of 50Ω or 250Ω accommodate drive from a wide variety of sources.

Applications

  • Wideband RMS Voltmeters
  • RF Leveling Loops
  • Wideband AGC
  • High Crest Factor Measurements
  • SCR Power Monitoring
