Overview
The LTC5596IDC#TRMPBF is a high-accuracy RMS power detector produced by Analog Devices Inc. This device is designed to operate over a wide frequency range from 100 MHz to 40 GHz, making it suitable for a variety of RF and microwave applications. It provides a linear-in-dB response with a 29mV/dB logarithmic slope over a 35dB dynamic range, ensuring accurate power measurements with typically better than ±1dB accuracy. The detector is particularly useful for measuring waveforms with high crest factors and significant variations in crest factor during measurement.
