GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The AD45030 is a mean-responding power detector for use in  
high frequency receiver and transmitter signal chains, up to  
2.5 GHz. It is very easy to apply. It requires a single supply only  
between 2.7 V and 5.5 V, a power supply decoupling capacitor,  
and an input coupling capacitor in most applications. The  
output is a linear-responding dc voltage with a conversion gain  
of 7.5 V/V rms. An external filter capacitor can be added to  
increase the averaging time constant.  
The AD45030 is intended for true power measurement of  
simple and complex waveforms. The device is particularly  
useful for measuring high crest factor (high peak-to-rms ratio)  
signals, such as CDMA and W-CDMA.  
The AD45030 has three operating modes to accommodate a  
variety of analog-to-digital converter (ADC) requirements:  
Ground reference mode, in which the origin is 0.  
3.0  
Internal reference mode, which offsets the output 350 mV  
above ground.

The AD45030 is specified for operation from −40°C to +85°C  
and is available in an 8-lead LFCSP. It is fabricated on a  
proprietary high fT silicon bipolar process.

ESD CAUTION  
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on  
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features  
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy  
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance  
degradation or loss of functionality.

VPOS  
IREF  
Supply Voltage Pin. Operational range 2.7 V to 5.5 V.  
Output Reference Control Pin. Internal reference mode enabled when pin is left open; otherwise, this pin  
should be tied to VPOS. Do not ground this pin.

RFIN  
PWDN  
Signal Input Pin. Must be driven from an ac-coupled source. The low frequency real input impedance is 225 Ω.  
Power-Down Pin. For the device to operate as a detector, it needs a logical low input (less than 100 mV). When  
a logic high (greater than VS − 0.5 V) is applied, the device is turned off and the supply current goes to nearly zero  
(ground and internal reference mode less than 1 μA, supply reference mode VS divided by 100 kΩ).

COMM  
FLTR  
Device Ground Pin.  
By placing a capacitor between this pin and VPOS, the corner frequency of the modulation filter is lowered. The  
on-chip filter is formed with 27 pF||2 kΩ for small input signals.

VRMS  
SREF  
Output Pin. Near rail-to-rail voltage output with limited current drive capabilities. Expected load >10 kΩ to ground.  
Supply Reference Control Pin. To enable supply reference mode, this pin must be connected to VPOS; otherwise,  
it should be connected to COMM (ground).

AD45030  
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION  
The AD45030 is an rms-responding (mean power) detector that  
provides an approach to the exact measurement of RF power  
that is independent of waveform. It achieves this function using  
a proprietary technique in which the outputs of two identical  
squaring cells are balanced by the action of a high-gain error  
amplifier.  
The squaring cells have very wide bandwidth with an intrinsic  
response from dc to microwave. However, the dynamic range of  
such a system is fairly small, due in part to the much larger  
dynamic range at the output of the squaring cells. There are  
practical limitations to the accuracy of sensing very small error  
signals at the bottom end of the dynamic range, arising from small  
random offsets that limit the attainable accuracy at small inputs.  
The signal to be measured is applied to the input of the first  
squaring cell, which presents a nominal (LF) resistance of 225 Ω  
between the RFIN and COMM pins (connected to the ground  
plane). Because the input pin is at a bias voltage of about 0.8 V  
above ground, a coupling capacitor is required. By making this  
an external component, the measurement range can be  
extended to arbitrarily low frequencies.  
On the other hand, the squaring cells in the AD45030 have a  
Class-AB aspect; the peak input is not limited by their quiescent  
bias condition but is determined mainly by the eventual loss of  
square-law conformance. Consequently, the top end of their  
response range occurs at a fairly large input level (approximately  
700 mV rms) while preserving a reasonably accurate square-law  
response. The maximum usable range is, in practice, limited by  
the output swing. The rail-to-rail output stage can swing from a  
few millivolts above ground to less than 100 mV below the  
supply. An example of the output induced limit: given a gain of  
7.5 and assuming a maximum output of 2.9 V with a 3 V supply,  
the maximum input is 2.9 V rms/7.5 or 390 mV rms.  
The AD45030 responds to the voltage, VIN, at its input by  
squaring this voltage to generate a current proportional to VIN  
squared. This is applied to an internal load resistor, across  
which a capacitor is connected. These form a low-pass filter,  
which extracts the mean of VIN squared. Although essentially  
voltage-responding, the associated input impedance calibrates  
this port in terms of equivalent power. Therefore, 1 mW  
corresponds to a voltage input of 447 mV rms. The Applications  
section shows how to match this input to 50 Ω.  
FILTERING  
An important aspect of rms-dc conversion is the need for  
averaging (the function is root-mean-square). For complex RF  
waveforms, such as those that occur in CDMA, the filtering  
provided by the on-chip, low-pass filter, although satisfactory  
for CW signals above 100 MHz, is inadequate when the signal  
has modulation components that extend down into the  
kilohertz region. For this reason, the FLTR pin is provided: a  
capacitor attached between this pin and VPOS can extend the  
averaging time to very low frequencies.  
The voltage across the low-pass filter, whose frequency can be  
arbitrarily low, is applied to one input of an error-sensing  
amplifier. A second identical voltage-squaring cell is used to  
close a negative feedback loop around this error amplifier. This  
second cell is driven by a fraction of the quasi-dc output voltage  
of the AD45030. When the voltage at the input of the second  
squaring cell is equal to the rms value of VIN, the loop is in a  
stable state, and the output then represents the rms value of the  
input. The feedback ratio is nominally 0.133, making the rms-  
dc conversion gain ×7.5, that is  
OFFSET  
An offset voltage can be added to the output to allow the use of  
ADCs whose range does not extend down to ground. However,  
accuracy at the low end degrades because of the inherent error  
in this added voltage. This requires that the IREF (internal  
reference) pin be tied to VPOS and SREF (supply reference) to  
ground.  
VOUT = 7.5×VIN rms  
By completing the feedback path through a second squaring  
cell, identical to the one receiving the signal to be measured,  
several benefits arise. First, scaling effects in these cells cancel;  
thus, the overall calibration can be accurate, even though the  
open-loop response of the squaring cells taken separately need  
not be. Note that in implementing rms-dc conversion, no  
reference voltage enters into the closed-loop scaling. Second,  
the tracking in the responses of the dual cells remains very close  
overtemperature, leading to excellent stability of calibration.  
In IREF mode, the intercept is generated by an internal  
reference cell and is a fixed 350 mV, independent of the supply  
voltage. To enable this intercept, IREF should be open-circuited  
and SREF should be grounded.  
In SREF mode, the voltage is provided by the supply. To  
implement this mode, tie IREF to VPOS and SREF to VPOS.  
The offset is then proportional to the supply voltage and is  
400 mV for a 3 V supply and 667 mV for a 5 V supply.

Figure 34 through Figure 36 show the basic connections for the  
AD45030 in its three operating modes. In all modes, the device  
is powered by a single supply of between 2.7 V and 5.5 V. The  
VPOS pin is decoupled using 100 pF and 0.01 μF capacitors.  
The quiescent current of 1.1 mA in operating mode can be  
reduced to 1 μA by pulling the PWDN pin up to VPOS.

A 75 Ω external shunt resistance combines with the ac-coupled  
input to give an overall broadband input impedance near 50 Ω.  
Note that the coupling capacitor must be placed between the  
input and the shunt impedance. Input impedance and input  
coupling are discussed in more detail below.  
Figure 36. Basic Connections for Supply Reference Mode  
The output voltage is nominally 7.5 times the input rms voltage  
(a conversion gain of 7.5 V/V rms). Three modes of operation  
are set by the SREF and IREF pins. In addition to the ground  
reference mode shown in Figure 34, where the output voltage  
swings from around near ground to 4.9 V on a 5.0 V supply, two  
additional modes allow an offset voltage to be added to the  
output. In the internal reference mode (Figure 35), the output  
voltage swing is shifted upward by an internal reference voltage  
of 350 mV. In supply reference mode (Figure 36), an offset  
voltage of VS/7.5 is added to the output voltage. Table 4

resistance (Figure 35) to provide a high-pass corner frequency

OUTPUT SWING

Figure 37 shows the output swing of the AD45030 for a 5 V  
supply voltage for each of the three modes. It is clear from  
Figure 37 that operating the device in either internal reference  
mode or supply referenced mode reduces the effective dynamic  
range as the output headroom decreases. The response for lower  
supply voltages is similar (in the supply referenced mode, the  
offset is smaller), but the dynamic range reduces further as  
headroom decreases. Figure 38 shows the response of the  
AD45030 to a CW input for various supply voltages.

should however be noted that offsets at the low end can be

Because the AD45030 is a linear-responding device with a  
nominal transfer function of 7.5 V/V rms, the dynamic range in  
dB is not clear from plots such as Figure 37. As the input level is  
increased in constant dB steps, the output step size (per dB) also  
increases. Figure 39 shows the relationship between the output  
step size (that is, mV/dB) and input voltage for a nominal  
transfer function of 7.5 V/V rms.

It is also apparent in Figure 40 that the error plot tends to  
shift to the right with increasing frequency. Because the input  
impedance decreases with frequency, the voltage actually  
applied to the input also tends to decrease (assuming a constant  
source impedance over frequency). The dynamic range is  
almost constant over frequency, but with a small decrease in  
conversion gain at high frequency.

The input impedance of the AD45030 decreases with increasing  
frequency in both its resistive and capacitive components (see  
Figure 15). The resistive component varies from 225 Ω at  
100 MHz down to about 95 Ω at 2.5 GHz.

A number of options exist for input matching. For operation at  
multiple frequencies, a 75 Ω shunt to ground, as shown in  
Figure 41, provides the best overall match. For use at a single  
frequency, a resistive or a reactive match can be used. By  
plotting the input impedance on a Smith Chart, the best value  
for a resistive match can be calculated. The VSWR can be held  
below 1.5 at frequencies up to 1 GHz, even as the input  
impedance varies from part to part. (Both input impedance and  
input capacitance can vary by up to 20ꢀ around their nominal  
values.) At very high frequencies (that is, 1.8 GHz to 2.5 GHz),  
a shunt resistor is not sufficient to reduce the VSWR below 1.5.  
Where VSWR is critical, remove the shunt component and  
insert an inductor in series with the coupling capacitor as  
shown in Figure 42.

Figure 39. Idealized Output Step Size as a Function of Input Voltage  
Plots of output voltage vs. input voltage result in a straight  
line. It can sometimes be more useful to plot the error on a  
logarithmic scale, as shown in Figure 40. The deviation of the  
plot for the ideal straight line characteristic is caused by output  
clipping at the high end and by signal offsets at the low end. It  
Table 5 gives recommended shunt resistor values for various  
frequencies and series inductor values for high frequencies. The  
coupling capacitor, CC, essentially acts as an ac-short and plays  
no intentional part in the matching.

Figure 44 shows a technique for coupling the input signal into  
the AD45030 that can be applicable where the input signal is  
much larger than the input range of the AD45030. A series  
resistor combines with the input impedance of the AD45030 to  
attenuate the input signal. Because this series resistor forms a  
divider with the frequency dependent input impedance, the  
apparent gain changes greatly with frequency. However, this  
method has the advantage of very little power being tapped off  
in RF power transmission applications. If the resistor is large  
compared to the transmission lines impedance, then the VSWR  
of the system is relatively unaffected.

SELECTING THE FILTER CAPACITOR  
AD45030  
The AD45030s internal 27 pF filter capacitor is connected in  
parallel with an internal resistance that varies with signal level  
from 2 kΩ for small signals to 500 Ω for large signals. The  
resulting low-pass corner frequency between 3 MHz and  
12 MHz provides adequate filtering for all frequencies above  
240 MHz (that is, 10 times the frequency at the output of the  
squarer, which is twice the input frequency). However, signals  
with high peak-to-average ratios, such as CDMA or W-CDMA  
signals, and low frequency components require additional  
filtering. TDMA signals, such as GSM, PDC, or PHS, have a  
peak-to average ratio that is close to that of a sinusoid, and the  
internal filter is adequate.

Alternatively, a reactive match can be implemented using a shunt  
inductor to ground and a series capacitor, as shown in Figure 43. A  
method for hand calculating the appropriate matching components  
is shown on page 12 of the AD8306 data sheet.  
The filter capacitance of the AD45030 can be augmented by  
connecting a capacitor between Pin 3 (FLTR) and Pin 6  
(VPOS). Table 7 shows the effect of several capacitor values for  
various communications standards with high peak-to-average  
ratios along with the residual ripple at the output, in peak-to-  
peak and rms volts. Note that large filter capacitors increase the  
enable and pulse response times, as discussed below.  
Matching in this manner results in very small values for CM,  
especially at high frequencies. As a result, a stray capacitance as  
small as 1 pF can significantly degrade the quality of the match.  
The main advantage of a reactive match is the increase in  
sensitivity that results from the input voltage being gained up  
(by the square root of the impedance ratio) by the matching  
network. Table 6 shows the recommended values for reactive  
matching.

the device. While turning off the device obviously eliminates  
the current consumption, disabling the device reduces the

the response of the output of the AD45030 to a pulse on the  
PWDN pin, with no capacitance and with a filter capacitance of  
0.01 μF, respectively; the turn-on time is a function of the filter  
capacitor. Figure 29 shows a plot of the output response to the

is pulsed) with a filter capacitor of 0.01 μF. Again, the turn-on  
time is strongly influenced by the size of the filter capacitor.

volts and dBm. In all cases, dBm are calculated relative to an

Although the AD45030 is specified for operation up to 2.5 GHz,  
there is no lower limit on the operating frequency. It is only  
necessary to increase the input coupling capacitor to reduce the  
corner frequency of the input high-pass filter (use an input  
resistance of 225 Ω for frequencies below 100 MHz). It is also  
necessary to increase the filter capacitor so that the signal at the  
output of the squaring circuit is free of ripple. The corner  
frequency is set by the combination of the internal resistance of  
2 kΩ and the external filter capacitance.

POWER CONSUMPTION, ENABLE, AND POWER-ON  
The quiescent current consumption of the AD45030 varies with  
the size of the input signal from about 1 mA for no signal up to  
7 mA at an input level of 0.66 V rms (9.4 dBm, re 50 Ω). If the  
input is driven beyond this point, the supply current increases  
steeply (see Figure 14). There is little variation in quiescent  
current with power supply voltage.

OUTPUT DRIVE CAPABILITY AND BUFFERING  
OUTPUT REFERENCE TEMPERATURE DRIFT  
COMPENSATION  
The AD45030 is capable of sourcing an output current of  
approximately 3 mA. If additional current is required, a simple  
buffering circuit can be used as shown in Figure 48. Similar  
circuits can be used to increase or decrease the nominal  
conversion gain of 7.5 V/V rms (Figure 46 and Figure 47).  
In Figure 47, the AD8031 buffers a resistive divider to give a  
slope of 3.75 V/V rms. In Figure 46, the op amp’s gain of two  
increases the slope to 15 V/V rms. Using other resistor values,  
the slope can be changed to an arbitrary value. The AD8031  
rail-to-rail op amp, used in these example, can swing from  
50 mV to 4.95 V on a single 5 V supply and operate at supply  
voltages down to 2.7 V. If high output current is required  
(>10 A), the AD8051, which also has rail-to- rail capability,  
can be used down to a supply voltage of 3 V. It can deliver up to  
45 mA of output current.  
The error due to low temperature drift of the AD45030 can be  
reduced if the temperature is known. Many systems incorporate  
a temperature sensor; the output of the sensor is typically  
digitized, facilitating a software correction. Using this  
information, only a two-point calibration at ambient is  
required.  
The output voltage of the AD45030 at ambient (25°C) can be  
expressed by the equation  
VOUT  
=
(
GAIN×VIN )+ ςΟΣ  
where GAIN is the conversion gain in V/V rms and VOS is the  
extrapolated output voltage for an input level of 0 V. GAIN and  
VOS (also referred to as intercept and output reference) can be  
calculated at ambient using a simple two-point calibration by  
measuring the output voltages for two specific input levels.  
Calibration at roughly 35 mV rms (−16 dBm) and 250 mV rms  
(+1 dBm) is recommended for maximum linear dynamic range.  
However, alternative levels and ranges can be chosen to suit the  
application. GAIN and VOS are then calculated using the  
equations

Figure 49 shows the output voltage and error (in dB) as a  
function of input level for a typical device (note that output  
voltage is plotted on a logarithmic scale). Figure 50 shows  
the error in the calculated input level after the temperature  
compensation algorithm has been applied. For a supply  
voltage of 5 V, the part exhibits a worst-case linearity error  
over temperature of approximately 0.3 dB over a dynamic  
range of 35 dB.  
In order to characterize the AD45030 at frequencies greater  
than 2.5 GHz, a small collection of devices were tested.  
Dynamic range, conversion gain, and output intercept were  
measured at several frequencies over a temperature range of  
−30°C to +80°C. Both CW and 64 QAM modulated input wave  
forms were used in the characterization process in order to  
access varying peak-to-average waveform performance.

The dynamic range of the device is calculated as the input  
power range over which the device remains within a  
permissible error margin to the ideal transfer function. Devices  
were tested over frequency and temperature. After identifying  
an acceptable error margin for a given application, the usable  
dynamic measurement range can be identified using the plots in  
Figure 51 through Figure 54. For instance, for a 1 dB error  
margin and a modulated carrier at 3 GHz, the usable dynamic  
range can be found by inspecting the 3 GHz plot of Figure 54.  
Note that the −30°C curve crosses the −1 dB error limit at  
−17 dBm. For a 5 V supply, the maximum input power should  
not exceed 6 dBm in order to avoid compression. The resultant  
usable dynamic range is therefore

The transfer functions and error for a CW input and a 64 QAM  
input waveform is shown in Figure 55. The error curve is  
generated from a linear reference based on the CW data. The  
increased crest factor of the 64 QAM modulation results in a  
decrease in output from the AD45030. This decrease in output  
is a result of the limited bandwidth and compression of the  
internal gain stages. This inaccuracy should be accounted for in  
systems where varying crest factor signals need to be measured.

The conversion gain is defined as the slope of the output voltage  
vs. the input rms voltage. An ideal best fit curve can be found  
for the measured transfer function at a given supply voltage and  
temperature. The slope of the ideal curve is identified as the  
conversion gain for a particular device. The conversion gain  
relates the measurement sensitivity of the AD45030 to the rms  
input voltage of the RF waveform. The conversion gain was  
measured for a number of devices over a temperature range of  
−30°C to +80°C. The conversion gain for a typical device is  
shown in Figure 56. Although the conversion gain tends to  
decrease with increasing frequency, the AD45030 provides  
measurement capability at frequencies greater than 2.5 GHz.

AD45030  
However, it is necessary to calibrate for a given application to  
accommodate for the change in conversion gain at higher  
frequencies.  
One of the AD45030s (U2) has a net gain of about 14 dB  
preceding it and therefore operates most accurately at low input  
signal levels. This is referred to as the weak signal path. U4, on  
the other hand, does not have the added gain and provides  
accurate response at high levels. The output of U2 is attenuated  
by R1 in order to cancel the effect of U2s preceding gain so that  
the slope of the transfer function (as seen at the slider of R1) is  
the same as that of U4 by itself.  
DYNAMIC RANGE EXTENSION FOR THE AD45030  
The accurate measurement range of the AD45030 is limited by  
internal dc offsets for small input signals and by square law  
conformance errors for large signals. The measurement range  
can be extended by using two devices operating at different  
signal levels and then choosing only the output of the device  
that provides accurate results at the prevailing input level.  
The circuit comprising U3, U5, and U6 is a crossfader,  
in which the relative gains of the two inputs are determined by  
the output currents of a fuzzy comparator made from Q1 and  
Q2. Assuming that the slider of R2 is at 2.5 V dc, the fuzzy  
comparator commands full weighting of the weak signal path  
when the output of U2 is below approximately 2.0 V dc, and  
full weighting of the strong signal path when the output of U3  
exceeds approximately 3.0 V dc. U3 and U5 are operational  
transconductance amplifiers (OTAs).  
Figure 57 depicts an implementation of this idea. In this circuit,  
the selection of the output is made gradually over an input level  
range of about 3 dB in order to minimize the impact of  
imperfect matching of the transfer functions of the two  
AD45030s. Such a mismatch typically arises because of the  
variation of the gain of the RF preamplifier U1 and both the  
gain and slope variations of the AD45030s with temperature.

U6 provides feedback to linearize the inherent tanh transfer  
function of the OTAs. When one OTA or the other is fully  
selected, the feedback is very effective. The active OTA has  
zero differential input; the inactive one has a potentially large  
differential input, but this does not matter because the inactive  
OTA is not contributing to the output. However, when both  
OTAs are active to some extent, and the two signal inputs to the  
crossfader are different, it is impossible to have zero differential  
inputs on the OTAs. In this event, the crossfader admittedly  
generates distortion because of the nonlinear transfer function  
of the OTAs. Fortunately, in this application, the distortion is  
not very objectionable for two reasons:

In principle, this method could be extended to three or more  
AD45030s in pursuit of even more measurement range.  
However, it is very important to pay close attention to the  
matter of not excessively overdriving the AD45030s in the  
weaker signal paths under strong signal conditions.  
1. The mismatch in input levels to the crossfader is never  
large enough to evoke very much distortion because the  
AD45030s are reasonably well-behaved.  
2. The effect of the distortion in this case is merely to distort  
the otherwise nearly linear slope of the transition between  
the crossfaders two inputs.  
Figure 60 shows the extended range transfer function at multiple  
temperatures. The discontinuity at approximately 0.2 V rms arises  
as a result of component temperature dependencies. Figure 61  
shows the error in dB of the range extender circuit at ambient  
temperature. For a 1 dB error margin, the range extender circuit  
offers 38 dB of measurement range.

accomplished by making a plot of the overall transfer  
function (using linear voltage scales for both axes) to  
assess the match in slope between one side of the transition  
region and the other (see Figure 58). Note: it can be helpful  
to adjust R3 to remove any large misalignment in the  
transfer function to correctly perceive slope differences.

EVALUATION BOARD  
Figure 62 shows the schematic of the AD45030 evaluation  
board. The layouts and silkscreens of the component and circuit  
sides are shown in Figure 63, Figure 64, Figure 65, and Figure 66.  
The board is powered by a single supply in the 2.7 V to 5.5 V  
range. The power supply is decoupled by 100 pF and 0.01 μF  
capacitors. Additional decoupling, in the form of a series  
resistor or inductor in R6, can also be added.  
Problems caused by impedance mismatch can arise using the  
evaluation board to examine the AD45030 performance. One  
way to reduce these problems is to put a coaxial 3 dB attenuator  
on the RFIN SMA connector. Mismatches at the source, cable,  
and cable interconnection, as well as those occurring on the  
evaluation board, can cause these problems.  
A simple (and common) example of such a problem is triple  
travel due to mismatch at both the source and the evaluation  
board. Here the signal from the source reaches the evaluation  
board and mismatch causes a reflection. When that reflection  
reaches the source mismatch, it causes a new reflection, which  
travels back to the evaluation board, adding to the original  
signal incident at the board. The resultant voltage varies with  
both cable length and frequency dependence on the relative  
phase of the initial and reflected signals. Placing the 3 dB pad at  
the input of the board improves the match at the board and thus  
reduces the sensitivity to mismatches at the source. When such  
precautions are taken, measurements are less sensitive to cable  
length and other fixture issues. In an actual application when  
the distance between the AD45030 and the source is short and  
well defined, this 3 dB attenuator is not needed.

The primary characterization setup is shown in Figure 68. The  
signal source used was a Rohde & Schwarz SMIQ03B, version  
3.90HX. The modulated waveforms used for IS95 reverse link,  
IS95 nine active channels forward (forward link 18 setting),  
and W-CDMA 4-channel and 15-channel were generated using  
the default settings coding and filtering. Signal levels were  
calibrated into a 50 Ω impedance.

Analysis  
Figure 67. Characterization Board  
The conversion gain and output reference are derived using the  
coefficients of a linear regression performed on data collected  
in its central operating range (35 mV rms to 250 mV rms).  
This range was chosen to avoid areas of operation where offset  
distorts the linear response. Error is stated in two forms error  
from linear response to CW waveform and output delta from  
2°C performance.

The error from linear response to CW waveform is the  
difference in output from the ideal output defined by the  
conversion gain and output reference. This is a measure of both  
the linearity of the device response to both CW and modulated  
waveforms. The error in dB uses the conversion gain multiplied  
by the input as its reference. Error from linear response to CW  
waveform is not a measure of absolute accuracy, since it is  
calculated using the gain and output reference of each device.  
However, it does show the linearity and effect of modulation on  
the device response. Error from 25°C performance uses the  
performance of a given device and waveform type as the  
reference; it is predominantly a measure of output variation  
with temperature.
