LF-to-2.5GHz Dual Logarithmic Detector/
Controller for Power, Gain, and VSWR Measurements
Power-Controller Mode
The MAX2016 can also be used as a power detector/
controller within an AGC loop. Figure 7 depicts a sce-
nario where the MAX2016 is employed as the AGC cir-
cuit. As shown in the figure, the MAX2016 monitors the
OUTA and OUTB Slope Adjustment
The transfer slope function of OUTA and OUTB can be
increased from its nominal value by varying resistors
R1 and R2 (see the Typical Application Circuit ). The
equation controlling the slope is:

MAX2016 maintains the power of the PA to a level
determined by the voltage applied to SET_.
Since the logarithmic detector responds to any ampli-
tude modulation being carried by the carrier signal, it

Input Highpass Filters
The MAX2016 integrates a programmable highpass fil-
ter on each RF input. The lower cutoff frequency of the
MAX2016 can be decreased by increasing the external
capacitor value between FA1 and FA2 or FB1 and FB2.
POWER AMPLIFIER
By default, with no capacitor connecting FA1 and FA2
or FB1 and FB2, the lower cutoff frequency is 20MHz.

The bandwidth and response time difference of the out-

OUTB Controls the Gain of the PA, Leading to a Constant

troller/detector, the second channel can be easily implemented
by using the adjacent set of input and output connections.)

Use a video bandwidth lower than the anticipated low-
est amplitude-modulation frequency range to yield the
greatest accuracy in tracking the average carrier
power for high peak-to-average ratio waveforms.
