RF Detectors

Choosing and Using RF Detectors

Analog Devices Inc

The purpose of this PTM is to provide an overview for choosing RF detectors along with a discussion of their specific applications.  This will include how to interface RF detectors with analog-to-digital converters as well as how RF detectors are calibrated. Finally, this presentation will explain the difference between RMS and non-RMS responding detectors.
