Analog DevicesAD8317-EVALZ

1 MHz to 10 GHz, 55 dB Log Detector/Controller Evaluation Board. The AD8317 is a demodulating logarithmic amplifier, capable of accurately converting an RF input signal to a corresponding decibel-scaled output. It employs the progressive compression technique over a cascaded amplifier chain, each stage of which is equipped with a detector cell. The device can be used in either measurement or controller modes
