The RF signal chain is defined by power rather than voltage or current. Providing root-mean-square (RMS) measurement of this power over a wide dynamic range is critical circuit and system requirement.

To support the data converters in wireless-infrastructure equipment, Analog Devices has introduced a dual-channel RF root-mean-square (RMS) power detector. This power detector measures transmit and ...
