APPLICATIONS Power amplifier linearization/control loops Transmitter power controls Transmitter signal strength indication (TSSI) RF instrumentation Wireless repeaters GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADL5903 is a true rms responding power detector that has a 35 dB measurement range. It features low power consumption and an intrinsically ripple-free error transfer function. The ADL5903 provides a solution in a variety of high frequency systems requiring an accurate measurement of signal power. Requiring only a single supply of 3.0 V to 5.0 V and a few capacitors, it is easy to use and capable of being driven singleended or with a balun for differential input drive. An on-chip matching network provides good return loss over the specified frequency range of the device. The ADL5903 can operate from 200 MHz to 6 GHz and can accept inputs from -30 dBm to +20 dBm. Rev. B The ADL5903 can be used to determine the true power of a high frequency signal with a complex modulation envelope including large crest factor signals such as GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA, TD-SCDMA, and LTE modulated signals. The output is then proportional to the logarithm of the rms value of the input. In other words, the reading is presented directly in decibels and is scaled about 35.5 mV/dB at 900 MHz. The ADL5903 has low power consumption when operational and a disable mode that further reduces the power consumption. Power consumption is less than 100 A when the ADL5903 enters power-down mode through a logic low at Pin ENBL. The ADL5903 is supplied in a 2 mm x 2 mm, 8-lead LFCSP for operation over the wide temperature range of -55C to +125C.

Return Loss with and Without External Shunt Termination INTERNAL FILTERING 1k 133 11769-040 OPTIONAL 127 An RF input matching network allows the device to be driven with a 50 source with reasonable input return loss. The measurement intercept varies with frequency, as shown in Table 1 and the Typical Performance Characteristics section. VPOS MATCHING NETWORK 11769-041 The core rms processing of the ADL5903 uses a proprietary technique that provides accuracy for complex modulation signals irrespective of the crest factor of the input signal. An integrating filter capacitor at Pin CRMS performs the square domain averaging. VPOS ESD The ADL5903 operates from a nominal supply voltage of 3.0 V to 5.0 V. The rms core is internally regulated to 3.6 V, that is, the full measurement range is available for supply voltages between 3.8 V and 5.0 V. Below 3.8 V, the high end of the measurement range degrades gradually whereas the low end shows no noticeable change in error characteristics or calibration requirements. At 2.14 GHz, the measurement range extends to 14 dBm for 3.8 V and above, and to 12 dBm at a supply voltage of 3.0 V. The low end of the ADL5903 measurement range is limited by internal device offsets that vary from device to device but tracks well over temperature. See the Device Calibration and Error Calculation section for more information. 200 MHz. Add an external shunt resistance of 127 , if desired, when operating at low frequencies to improve input return loss over the range of 200 MHz to 1.7 GHz. Figure 41 shows a comparison of the input return loss, with and without the external shunt resistor. RETURN LOSS, S11 (dB) The ADL5903 is a true rms detector with a 35 dB measurement range at 2.14 GHz with useable range up to 6 GHz. It features no error ripple over its range, low temperature drift, and very low power consumption. Temperature stability of the rms output measurements provides 0.5 dB error typical over the temperature range of -40C to +85C up to 3.5 GHz. The measurement output voltage scales linearly in decibels with a slope of approximately 36 mV/dB. Figure 39. Simplified Architecture RF INPUT INTERFACE A single-ended input at the RFIN pin drives the ADL5903, and a 50 source can drive it directly without any external components. Figure 40 shows the simplified RF input interface. An on-chip matching network presents 133 of shunt resistance to ground and ac coupling to the rms core. The ESD protection circuitry is designed to allow voltage swings as high as 2 V at the input. The CREG pin provides a bypass capacitor connection for an on-chip regulator. The CREG pin is connected to ground with a 4.02 resistor and a 0.1 F capacitor. The CRMS pin provides an averaging function for the rms computation and is referenced to Pin 4 (CREG). A filter capacitor can be placed between the CRMS and CREG pins. More information on choosing the CRMS capacitor is provided in the Choosing a Value for CRMS section. Using smaller values for CRMS allows quicker response times to a pulsed waveform. Higher values of CRMS are required for correct rms computation as the peak to average ratio of modulated signals increases and the bandwidth of the modulated signals decreases. As shown in Figure 12 (input return loss, S11), the device offers excellent input return loss over most of the operating range but rises to around -9 dB near its minimum operating frequency of Rev.

In Figure 44, a value of 0.1 F is used. For most signal modulation schemes, this value ensures excellent rms measurement compliance and low residual output noise. There is no maximum capacitance limit for CRMS. RFIN 100 CRMS CAPACITANCE (nF) CRMS provides the averaging function for the internal rms computation. Using the minimum value for CRMS allows the quickest response time to a pulsed waveform but leaves significant output noise on the output voltage signal. However, a large filter capacitor reduces output noise and improves the rms measurement accuracy but at the expense of the response time. VENBL 100k RISE/FALL TIME (s) 700 11769-042 The ENBL pin configures the device enable interface. Connecting the ENBL pin to a logic high signal (2 V to 5.0 V) enables the device, and connecting the pin to a logic low signal (0 V to 0.6 V) disables the device. The exposed pad is internally connected to GND and must be soldered to a low impedance ground plane. Data Sheet ADL5903 Table 4. Recommended Minimum CRMS Values for Various Modulation Schemes The values in Table 4 were experimentally determined to be the minimum capacitance that ensures good rms accuracy for that particular signal type. This test was initially performed with a large capacitance value on the CRMS pin (for example, 10 F). The value of VRMS was noted for a fixed input level (for example, -10 dBm). The value of CRMS was then progressively reduced (this can be accomplished with press-down capacitors) until the value of VRMS started to deviate from its original value (this indicates that the accuracy of the rms computation is degrading and that CRMS is becoming too small). In general, the minimum CRMS required increases as the peak-toaverage ratio of the carrier increases. The minimum required CRMS also tends to increase as the bandwidth of the carrier decreases. With narrow-band carriers, the noise spectrum of the VRMS output tends to have a correspondingly narrow profile. The relatively narrow spectral profile demands a larger value of CRMS that reduces the low-pass corner frequency of the averaging function and ensures a valid rms computation.

The output response time and noise performance are also shown. Using lower capacitor values results in faster response times but can result in degraded rms measurement accuracy. If the output noise shown in Table 4 is unacceptably high, it can be reduced by increasing CRMS or by implementing an averaging algorithm after the output voltage of the ADL5903 has been sampled by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).

For a two-point calibration, write the equation for the idealized output voltage as VRMS(IDEAL) = Slope x (PIN - Intercept) (1) DEVICE CALIBRATION AND ERROR CALCULATION where: Slope is the change in output voltage divided by the change in input level (dBm). PIN is the input level. Intercept is the calculated input level at which the output voltage is equal to 0 V (note that Intercept is an extrapolated theoretical value and not a measured value). The measured transfer function of the ADL5903 at 2.14 GHz is shown in Figure 45, which contains plots of both output voltage and log conformance error vs. input level for one device. As the input level varies from -30 dBm to +14 dBm, the output voltage varies from near 0 V to 1.9 V. In general, calibration is performed during equipment manufacture by applying two or more known signal levels to the input of the ADL5903 and measuring the corresponding output voltages. The calibration points must be within the linear operating range of the device. With a two-point calibration, calculate the slope and intercept as follows: Rev. B | Page 17 of 20 Slope = (VRMS1 - VRMS2)/(PIN1 - PIN2) (2) Intercept = PIN1 - (VRMS1/Slope) (3) ADL5903 Data Sheet After the slope and intercept are calculated (and stored in some form) an equation can be used to calculate an unknown input level based on the output voltage of the detector. Error (dB) = (VRMS(MEASURED) - VRMS(IDEAL))/Slope (5) Figure 45 shows the log conformance error at five temperatures, ranging from -55C to +125C, when using a two-point calibration (calibration points are +10 dBm and -10 dBm) measured at one temperature, 25C. The error at the two calibration points passes through 0 dB for the 25C curve by definition. Multipoint calibration can be used to further extend the measurement dynamic range. In this case, the transfer function is segmented, with each segment having its own slope and intercept. Figure 46 shows the error plot of the same device with calibration points at -16 dBm, -4 dBm, and+12 dBm. The three-point, dual-slope calibration results in tighter error bounds over the high end of the range and extends the lower measurement range to better than -20 dBm for 1 dB error. 2.4 6 5 2.0 4 -55C -40C +25C +85C +125C 1.8 1.6 3 2 1.4 1 1.2 0 ERROR (dB) OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) CALIBRATION AT -16dBm, -4dBm, AND +12dBm 2.2 4 -55C -40C +25C +85C +125C 1.8 1.6 3 2 1.4 1 1.2 0 1.0 -1 0.8 -2 0.6 -3 0.4 -4 0.2 -5 0 -40 -35 -30 -25 -20 -15 -10 ERROR (dB) The log conformance error is the difference between this straight line and the actual performance of the detector. 5 2.0 -6 -5 0 5 10 15 11769-047 (4) 6 CALIBRATION AT -16dBm, -4dBm, AND +12dBm 2.2 OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) PIN (Unknown) = (VRMS(MEASURED)/Slope) + Intercept 2.4 20 PIN (dBm) Figure 47. 2.14 GHz VRMS and Log Conformance Error for Second Device at +25C, -40C, -55C, +85C, and +125C For comparison, the three-point calibration of a different device is shown in Figure 47 for the same frequency and calibration points. For this example, note that the device has greater dynamic range, and the temperature dependence of error at lower power levels is inverted. Finally, Figure 48 shows the log conformance error at 2.14 GHz for a collection of four devices at +25C, -40C, and +85C with three-point calibration (-16 dBm, -4 dBm, and+12 dBm). The error plots at each temperature are calculated with respect to the slope and intercept measurements from the 25C line for each device. This is consistent with a typical production environment where calibration at one temperature is required. Figure 48 illustrates the various error scenarios possible at low input levels.

R208 is a shunt input termination to optimize low frequency input return loss. Device enable interface. Header S201 configures the enable network. Pin 2 and Pin 3 of S201 enable the resistive divider network. R205 and R206 form a resistive divider network to step down the voltage provided by VPOS for an optimal enable setpoint condition. Power supply decoupling. The nominal supply decoupling consists of a 100 pF and a 0.1 F capacitor placed near the device. RMS averaging capacitor. C209 is the capacitor (CRMS) interfacing CREG and CRMS for rms averaging. Set the value of the rms averaging capacitor on the peak-to-average ratio of the input signal and based on the desired output response time and residual output noise. See the Choosing a Value for CRMS section for more information. Bypass capacitor connection for on-chip regulator. R202 and C203A are connected to the CREG pin to provide decoupling for the internal regulator. RMS output. R204 and C210 provide options for output filtering and to mimic system load conditions. Test header interface. Exposed pad. The exposed pad is soldered to a ground pad, which provides both a thermal ground and an electrical ground. DNI = do not install. Rev.
