GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
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. The AD8317 maintains  
accurate log conformance for signals of 1 MHz to 8 GHz and  
provides useful operation to 10 GHz. The input dynamic range  
is typically 55 dB (re: 50 Ω) with less than 3 dB error. The  
AD8317 has 6 ns/10 ns response time (fall time/rise time) that  
enables RF burst detection to a pulse rate of beyond 50 MHz.  
The device provides unprecedented logarithmic intercept stability  
vs. ambient temperature conditions. A supply of 3.0 V to 5.5 V  
is required to power the device. Current consumption is typically  
22 mA, and it decreases to 200 μA when the device is disabled.  
The feedback loop through an RF amplifier is closed via VOUT,  
the output of which regulates the output of the amplifier to a  
magnitude corresponding to VSET. The AD8317 provides 0 V to  
(VPOS − 0.1 V) output capability at the VOUT pin, suitable for  
controller applications. As a measurement device, VOUT is  
externally connected to VSET to produce an output voltage,  
VOUT, that is a decreasing linear-in-dB function of the RF input  
signal amplitude.  
The logarithmic slope is 22 mV/dB, determined by the VSET  
interface. The intercept is 15 dBm (re: 50 ꢀ, CW input) using  
the INHI input. These parameters are very stable against supply  
and temperature variations.  
The AD8317 is fabricated on a SiGe bipolar IC process and is  
available in a 2 mm × 3 mm, 8-lead LFCSP with an operating  
temperature range of −40°C to +85°C.  
The AD8317 can be configured to provide a control voltage to a  
power amplifier or a measurement output from the VOUT pin.  
Because the output can be used for controller applications, special  
attention has been paid to minimize wideband noise. In this  
mode, the setpoint control voltage is applied to the VSET pin.

AD8317  
THEORY OF OPERATION  
The AD8317 is a 6-stage demodulating logarithmic amplifier,  
specifically designed for use in RF measurement and power  
control applications at frequencies up to 10 GHz. A block  
diagram is shown in Figure 21. Sharing much of its design  
with the AD8318 logarithmic detector/controller, the AD8317  
maintains tight intercept variability vs. temperature over a 50 dB  
range. Additional enhancements over the AD8318, such as a  
reduced RF burst response time of 6 ns to 10 ns, 22 mA supply  
current, and board space requirements of only 2 mm × 3 mm,  
add to the low cost and high performance benefits of the AD8317.  
compensate for errors due to internal noise. The common pin,  
COMM, provides a quality low impedance connection to the  
printed circuit board (PCB) ground. The package paddle, which  
is internally connected to the COMM pin, should also be grounded  
to the PCB to reduce thermal impedance from the die to the PCB.  
The logarithmic function is approximated in a piecewise fashion  
by six cascaded gain stages. (For a more comprehensive expla-  
nation of the logarithm approximation, see the AD8307 data  
sheet.) The cells have a nominal voltage gain of 9 dB each and a  
3 dB bandwidth of 10.5 GHz. Using precision biasing, the gain  
is stabilized over temperature and supply variations. The overall  
dc gain is high, due to the cascaded nature of the gain stages. An  
offset compensation loop is included to correct for offsets  
within the cascaded cells. At the output of each of the gain  
stages, a square-law detector cell is used to rectify the signal.

The RF signal voltages are converted to a fluctuating differential  
current having an average value that increases with signal level.  
Along with the six gain stages and detector cells, an additional  
detector is included at the input of the AD8317, providing a  
50 dB dynamic range in total. After the detector currents are  
summed and filtered, the following function is formed at the  
summing node:

A fully differential design, using a proprietary, high speed SiGe  
process, extends high frequency performance. Input INHI receives  
the signal with a low frequency impedance of nominally 500 ꢀ  
in parallel with 0.7 pF. The maximum input with 1 dB log-  
conformance error is typically 0 dBm (re: 50 ꢀ). The noise  
spectral density referred to the input is 1.15 nV/Hz, which is  
equivalent to a voltage of 118 μV rms in a 10.5 GHz bandwidth  
or a noise power of −66 dBm (re: 50 ꢀ). This noise spectral  
density sets the lower limit of the dynamic range. However,  
the low end accuracy of the AD8317 is enhanced by specially  
shaping the demodulating transfer characteristic to partially  
ID × log10(VIN/VINTERCEPT  
where:  
ID is the internally set detector current.

USING THE AD8317  
Figure 22) combines with the relatively high input impedance to  
give an adequate broadband 50 ꢀ match.  
BASIC CONNECTIONS  
The AD8317 is specified for operation up to 10 GHz; as a result,  
low impedance supply pins with adequate isolation between  
functions are essential. A power supply voltage of between 3.0 V  
and 5.5 V should be applied to VPOS. Power supply decoupling  
capacitors of 100 pF and 0.1 μF should be connected close to  
this power supply pin.  
The coupling time constant, 50 × CC/2, forms a high-pass  
corner with a 3 dB attenuation at fHP = 1/(2π × 50 × CC ), where  
C1 = C2 = CC. Using the typical value of 47 nF, this high-pass  
corner is ~68 kHz. In high frequency applications, fHP should be  
as large as possible to minimize the coupling of unwanted low  
frequency signals. In low frequency applications, a simple RC  
network forming a low-pass filter should be added at the input  
for similar reasons. This low-pass filter network should generally  
be placed at the generator side of the coupling capacitors, thereby  
lowering the required capacitance value for a given high-pass  
corner frequency.

The VOUT pin is driven by a PNP output stage. An internal

capacitance and the pull-down resistance at VOUT. There is an  
internal pull-down resistor of 1.6 kꢀ. A resistive load at VOUT  
is placed in parallel with the internal pull-down resistor to  
provide additional discharge current.

An offset voltage, VOFFSET, of 0.35 V is internally added to  
the detector signal, so that the minimum value for VOUT is  
X × VOFFSET; therefore, for X = 1, the minimum VOUT is 0.35 V.  
The relationship between output temperature drift and  
frequency is not linear and cannot be easily modeled. As a  
result, experimentation is required to choose the correct  
TADJ resistor. Table 4 shows the recommended values for  
some commonly used frequencies.

As noted in Equation 3 and Equation 4, the VOUT voltage has a  
negative slope. This is also the correct slope polarity to control  
the gain of many power amplifiers in a negative feedback con-  
figuration. Because both the slope and intercept vary slightly  
with frequency, it is recommended to refer to the Specifications  
section for application-specific values for slope and intercept.

Although demodulating log amps respond to input signal  
voltage, not input signal power, it is customary to discuss the  
amplitude of high frequency signals in terms of power. In this  
case, the characteristic impedance of the system, Z0, must be  
known to convert voltages to their corresponding power levels.  
The following equations are used to perform this conversion:

When the VOUT voltage or a portion of the VOUT voltage is fed  
back to the VSET pin, the device operates in measurement  
mode. As seen in Figure 27, the AD8317 has an offset voltage,  
a negative slope, and a VOUT measurement intercept at the high  
end of its input signal range.

AD8317  
For example, PINTERCEPT for a sinusoidal input signal expressed in  
terms of dBm (decibels referred to 1 mW), in a 50 ꢀ system is  
between VOUT and the RF input signal when the device is in  
measurement mode, the AD8317 adjusts the voltage on VOUT  
(VOUT is now an error amplifier output) until the level at the  
RF input corresponds to the applied VSET. When the AD8317  
operates in controller mode, there is no defined relationship  
between the VSET and the VOUT voltage; VOUT settles to a value  
that results in the correct input signal level appearing at  
INHI/INLO.

INTERCEPT [dBm] =  
INTERCEPT [dBV] − 10 × log10(Z0 × 1 mW/1 VRMS2) =

PINTERCEPT  
=
−1 dBV − 10 × log10[(200 ꢀ × 1 mW/1 VRMS2)] = 6 dBm  
For this output power control loop to be stable, a ground-  
referenced capacitor must be connected to the CLPF pin. This  
capacitor, CFLT, integrates the error signal (in the form of a  
current) to set the loop bandwidth and ensure loop stability.  
Further details on control loop dynamics can be found in the  
AD8315 data sheet.  
Further information on the intercept variation dependence  
upon waveform can be found in the AD8313 and AD8307  
data sheets.  
SETTING THE OUTPUT SLOPE IN MEASUREMENT  
MODE  
To operate in measurement mode, VOUT must be connected  
to VSET. Connecting VOUT directly to VSET yields the nominal  
logarithmic slope of approximately −22 mV/dB. The output  
swing corresponding to the specified input range is then approx-  
imately 0.35 V to 1.7 V. The slope and output swing can be  
increased by placing a resistor divider between VOUT and  
VSET (that is, one resistor from VOUT to VSET and one  
resistor from VSET to ground). The input impedance of VSET  
is approximately 40 kꢀ. Slope-setting resistors should be kept  
below 20 kꢀ to prevent this input impedance from affecting  
the resulting slope. If two equal resistors are used (for example,  
10 kꢀ/10 kꢀ), the slope doubles to approximately −44 mV/dB.

The basic connections for operating the AD8317 in an auto-

Figure 30. The ADL5330 is a 10 MHz to 3 GHz VGA. It offers a  
large gain control range of 60 dB with 0.5 dB gain stability.  
This configuration is similar to Figure 29.  
Figure 28. Increasing the Slope  
CONTROLLER MODE  
The AD8317 provides a controller mode feature at the VOUT  
pin. By using VSET for the setpoint voltage, it is possible for the  
AD8317 to control subsystems, such as power amplifiers (PAs),  
variable gain amplifiers (VGAs), or variable voltage attenuators  
(VVAs), that have output power that increases monotonically  
with respect to their gain control signal.  
The gain of the ADL5330 is controlled by the output pin of the  
AD8317. This voltage, VOUT, has a range of 0 V to near VPOS. To  
avoid overdrive recovery issues, the AD8317 output voltage can  
be scaled down using a resistive divider to interface with the 0 V  
to 1.4 V gain control range of the ADL5330.  
To operate in controller mode, the link between VSET and  
VOUT is broken. A setpoint voltage is applied to the VSET  
input, VOUT is connected to the gain control terminal of the  
VGA, and the RF input of the detector is connected to the  
output of the VGA (usually using a directional coupler and  
some additional attenuation). Based on the defined relationship  
A coupler/attenuation of 21 dB is used to match the desired  
maximum output power from the VGA to the top end of the  
linear operating range of the AD8317 (approximately −5 dBm  
at 900 MHz).

Figure 30. AD8317 Operating in Controller Mode to Provide Automatic Gain Control Functionality in Combination with the ADL5330  
Figure 31 shows the transfer function of the output power vs.  
the setpoint voltage over temperature for a 900 MHz sine wave  
with an input power of −1.5 dBm. Note that the power control  
of the AD8317 has a negative sense. Decreasing VSET, which  
corresponds to demanding a higher signal from the ADL5330,  
increases gain.  
For the AGC loop to remain in equilibrium, the AD8317 must  
track the envelope of the ADL5330 output signal and provide  
the necessary voltage levels to the ADL5330 gain control input.  
Figure 32 shows an oscilloscope screenshot of the AGC loop  
depicted in Figure 30. A 100 MHz sine wave with 50% AM  
modulation is applied to the ADL5330. The output signal from  
the VGA is a constant envelope sine wave with amplitude corre-  
sponding to a setpoint voltage at the AD8317 of 1.5 V. Also  
shown is the gain control response of the AD8317 to the  
changing input envelope.  
The AGC loop is capable of controlling signals just under the  
full 60 dB gain control range of the ADL5330. The performance  
over temperature is most accurate over the highest power range,  
where it is generally most critical. Across the top 40 dB range  
of output power, the linear conformance error is well within  
0.5 dB over temperature.

Response time and the amount of signal integration are con-  
trolled by CFLT. This functionality is analogous to the feedback  
capacitor around an integrating amplifier. Although it is  
possible to use large capacitors for CFLT, in most applications,  
values under 1 nF provide sufficient filtering.  
OPERATION BEYOND 8 GHz  
The AD8317 is specified for operation up to 8 GHz, but it provides  
useful measurement accuracy over a reduced dynamic range of  
up to 10 GHz. Figure 35 shows the performance of the AD8317  
over temperature at 10 GHz when the device is configured as  
shown in Figure 22. Dynamic range is reduced at this frequency,  
but the AD8317 does provide 30 dB of measurement range  
within 3 dB of linearity error.  
Calibration in controller mode is similar to the method used  
in measurement mode. A simple 2-point calibration can be  
done by applying two known VSET voltages or DAC codes and  
measuring the output power from the VGA. Slope and intercept  
can then be calculated by:  
Slope = (VSET1 VSET2)/(POUT1 POUT2  
Intercept = POUT1 VSET1/Slope

For applications in which maximum video bandwidth and,  
consequently, fast rise time are desired, it is essential that the  
CLPF pin be left unconnected and free of any stray capacitance.  
The nominal output video bandwidth of 50 MHz can be reduced  
by connecting a ground-referenced capacitor (CFLT) to the CLPF  
pin, as shown in Figure 34. This is generally done to reduce  
output ripple (at twice the input frequency for a symmetric  
input waveform such as sinusoidal signals).

Multiple Devices, RTADJ = Open, CLPF = 1000 pF  
Implementing an impedance match for frequencies beyond  
8 GHz can improve the sensitivity of the AD8317 and measure-  
ment range.  
Operation beyond 10 GHz is possible, but part-to-part  
variation, most notably in the intercept, becomes significant.

Input Interface.  
R1 = 52.3 Ω (Size 0402)  
C1 = 47 nF (Size 0402)  
C2 = 47 nF (Size 0402)  
The 52.3 Ω resistor in Position R1 combines with the internal input impedance  
of the AD8317 to give a broadband input impedance of about 50 Ω. C1 and C2  
are dc-blocking capacitors. A reactive impedance match can be implemented  
by replacing R1 with an inductor and C1 and C2 with appropriately valued  
capacitors.  
R5, R7  
Temperature Compensation Interface.  
R5 = 200 Ω (Size 0402)  
R7 = open (Size 0402)  
The internal temperature compensation network is optimized for input signals  
up to 3.6 GHz when R7 is 10 kΩ. This circuit can be adjusted to optimize  
performance for other input frequencies by changing the value of the resistor  
in Position R7. See Table 4 for specific RTADJ resistor values.  
R2, R3, R4, R6, RL, CL  
Output Interface—Measurement Mode.  
R2 = 0 Ω (Size 0402)  
In measurement mode, a portion of the output voltage is fed back to the VSET  
pin via R2. The magnitude of the slope of the VOUT output voltage response  
can be increased by reducing the portion of VOUT that is fed back to VSET. R6  
can be used as a back-terminating resistor or as part of a single-pole, low-pass  
filter.  
R3 = open (Size 0402)  
R4 = open (Size 0402)  
R6 = 1 kΩ (Size 0402)  
RL = CL = open (Size 0402)  
R2, R3  
Output Interface—Controller Mode.  
R2 = open (Size 0402)  
In this mode, R2 must be open. In controller mode, the AD8317 can control the R3 = open (Size 0402)  
gain of an external component. A setpoint voltage is applied to Pin VSET, the  
value of which corresponds to the desired RF input signal level applied to the  
AD8317 RF input. A sample of the RF output signal from this variable gain  
component is selected, typically via a directional coupler, and applied to the  
AD8317 RF input. The voltage at the VOUT pin is applied to the gain control of  
the variable gain element. A control voltage is applied to the VSET pin. The  
magnitude of the control voltage can optionally be attenuated via the voltage  
divider comprising R2 and R3, or a capacitor can be installed in Position R3 to  
form a low-pass filter along with R2.  
C4, C5  
C3  
Power Supply Decoupling.  
C4 = 0.1 ꢀF (Size 0603)  
C5 = 100 pF (Size 0402)  
The nominal supply decoupling consists of a 100 pF filter capacitor placed  
physically close to the AD8317 and a 0.1 ꢀF capacitor placed nearer to the  
power supply input pin.  
Filter Capacitor.  
C3 = 8.2 pF (Size 0402)  
The low-pass corner frequency of the circuit that drives the VOUT pin can be  
lowered by placing a capacitor between CLPF and ground. Increasing this  
capacitor increases the overall rise/fall time of the AD8317 for pulsed input  
signals. See the Output Filtering section for more details.
