Analog Devices AD8307 Logarithmic Amplifier Datasheet
The AD8307 is a complete 500 MHz monolithic logarithmic amplifier offered in an 8‑lead SO‑8 package. It provides a 92 dB dynamic range from –75 dBm to +17 dBm, operates from a single 2.7 V–5.5 V supply, and features a fully differential input with high impedance.
Key specifications include a 100 ns power‑up time, 400 ns small‑signal response, 500 MHz upper usable frequency, 10 Hz lower usable frequency, and a logarithmic slope of about 25 mV/dB. The device is supplied in industrial temperature grades (‑40 °C to +85 °C) and is suited for applications such as RSSI, antenna power measurement, radar/sonar processing, and spectrum analysis.
