The LTC®5582 is a 40MHz to 10GHz RMS responding
power detector. It is capable of accurate power measurement of an AC signal with wide dynamic range, from
–60dBm to 2dBm depending on frequency. The power
of the AC signal in an equivalent decibel-scaled value
is precisely converted into DC voltage on a linear scale,
independent of the crest factor of the input signal waveforms. The LTC5582 is suitable for precision RF power
measurement and level control for a wide variety of RF
standards, including LTE, WiMAX, W-CDMA, CDMA2000,
TD-SCDMA, and EDGE. The DC output is buffered with a
low output impedance amplifier capable of driving a high
capacitance load. Consult factory for more information.
The part is packaged in a 10-lead 3mm × 3mm DFN. It is
pin-to-pin compatible with the LT5570.

Note 4: Logarithmic Intercept is an extrapolated input power level from the
best fitted log-linear straight line, where the output voltage is 0V.
Note 5: Operation over a wider frequency range is possible with reduced
performance. Consult the factory for information and assistance.
Note 6: The linearity error is calculated by the difference between the
incremental slope of the output and the average output slope from
–50dBm to –5dBm for frequencies up to 5.8GHz, and –25dBm to –5dBm
for 8GHz and 10GHz. The dynamic range is defined as the range over
which the linearity error is within ±1dB.

PIN FUNCTIONS
VCC (Pin 1): Power Supply Pin. Typical current consumption is 41.6mA at room temperature. This pin should be
externally bypassed with 1nF and 1µF chip capacitors.
IN+, IN– (Pins 2, 4): Differential Input Signal Pins. Either
one can be driven with a single-ended signal while the
other is AC-coupled to ground. These pins can also be
driven with a differential signal. The pins are internally
biased to 1.585V and should be DC blocked externally. The
differential impedance is typically 400Ω. The impedance
of each pin to the DEC pin is 200Ω.
RT2 (Pin 7): Optional Control Pin for 2nd-Order Output
Temperature Compensation. Connect this pin to ground to
disable it. The output voltage will decrease with respect to
the room temperature (25°C) by connecting it to ground
via an off-chip resistor when the ambient temperature is
either higher or lower.
RT1 (Pin 8): Optional Control Pin for 1st-Order Output
Temperature Compensation. Connect this pin to ground
to disable it. The output voltage will increase inversely
proportional to ambient temperature.
DEC (Pin 3): Input Common Mode Decoupling Pin. This
pin is internally biased to 1.585V and connected to an onchip 50pF capacitor to ground. The impedance between
DEC and IN+ (or IN–) is 200Ω. The pin can be connected
to the center tap of an external balun when terminated
differentially. The pin can be floating or connected to
ground via an AC-decoupling capacitor when driven either
in single-ended or differential input configuration.
EN (Pin 9): Enable Pin. An applied voltage above 1V will
activate the bias for the IC. For an applied voltage below
0.4V, the circuits will be shut down (disabled) with a reduction in power supply current. If the enable function is not
required, then this pin can be connected to VCC. Typical
enable pin input current is 100μA for EN = 3.3V. Note that
at no time should the Enable pin voltage be allowed to
exceed VCC by more than 0.3V.
GND (Pin 5, Exposed Pad Pin 11): Circuit Ground Return
for the Entire IC. This must be soldered to the printed
circuit board ground plane.
FLTR (Pin 10): Connection for an External Filtering Capacitor C3. A minimum of 8nF capacitance is required for stable
AC average power measurement. This capacitor should
be connected to VCC.
OUT (Pin 6): DC Output Pin. The output impedance is
mainly determined by an internal 100Ω series resistance
which provides protection if the output is shorted to ground.

LTC5582
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LTC5582 is a true RMS RF power detector, capable
of measuring an RF signal over the frequency range from
40MHz to 10GHz, independent of input waveforms with
different crest factors such as CW, CDMA2K, WCDMA,
LTE and WiMAX signals. Up to 60dB dynamic range is
achieved with a very stable output within the full temperature range from –40°C to 125°C. Its sensitivity can be as
low as –57dBm up to 2.7GHz even with single-ended 50Ω
input termination.
RF Inputs
The differential RF inputs are internally biased at 1.585V.
The differential impedance is 400Ω. These pins should be
DC blocked when connected to ground or other matching
components.
The LTC5582 can be driven in a single-ended configuration
as illustrated in Figure 3. The single-ended input impedance
vs frequency is detailed in Table 1. The DEC Pin can be
either left floating or AC-coupled to ground via an external
capacitor. While the RF signal is applied to the IN+ (or IN–)
Pin, the other pin IN– (or IN+) should be AC-coupled to
ground. By simply terminating a 68Ω resistor between
the IN+ and IN– Pins and coupling the non-signal side
to ground using a 1nF capacitor, broadband 50Ω input
matching can be achieved with typical return loss better
than 10dB from 40MHz to 5.5GHz. At higher RF frequencies, additional matching components may be needed.

The LTC5582 differential inputs can also be driven from
a fully balanced source as shown in Figure 4. When the
signal source is a single-ended 50Ω, conversion to a differential signal can be achieved using a 1:8 balun to match
the internal 400Ω input impedance to the 50Ω source.
This impedance transformation results in 9dB voltage
gain, thus 9dB improvement in sensitivity is obtained

Due to the high input impedance of the LTC5582, a narrow
band L-C matching network can be also used to convert
a single-ended input to differential signal as shown in
Figure 5. By this means, the sensitivity and overall linear
dynamic range of the detector will be very similar to the
one using 1:8 RF input balun. The conversion gain is
strongly dependent on the loss (or Q) of the matching
network, particularly at high frequency. The lower the Q,
the lower the conversion gain. However, the matching
bandwidth is correspondingly wider. The following formulas
are provided to calculate the input matching network for
single-ended-to-differential conversion at low RF frequency

LTC5582
The sensitivity of LTC5582 is dictated by the broadband
input noise power that also determines the output DC
offset voltage. When the inputs are terminated differently,
the DC output voltage may vary slightly. When the input
noise power is minimized, the DC offset voltage is also
reduced to the minimum. And the detector’s sensitivity
and dynamic range will be improved accordingly.
External Filtering (FLTR) Capacitor
This external capacitor value has a dominant effect on the
output transient response. The lower the capacitance, the
faster the output rise and fall times. For signals with AM
content such as W-CDMA, significant ripple can be observed when the loop bandwidth set by C3 is close to the
modulation bandwidth of the signal. A 4-carrier W‑CDMA
RF signal is used as an example in this case. The trade-offs
of the residual ripple vs the output transient times are as
shown in Figure 8.
In general, the LTC5582 output ripple remains relatively
constant regardless of the RF input power level for a fixed
C3 and modulation format of the RF signal. Typically, C3
must be selected to smooth out the ripple to achieve the
desired accuracy of RF power measurement.

This pin is internally biased at VCC – 0.43V via a 1.2k
resistor from the voltage supply, VCC. To assure stable
operation of the LTC5582, an external capacitor C3 with
a value of 8nF or higher is required to connect from the
FLTR Pin to VCC to avoid an abnormal start-up condition.
Don’t connect this filtering capacitor to ground or any

RISE TIME (µs)
For a 50Ω input termination, the approximate RF input
power range of the LTC5582 is from –60dBm to 2dBm,
even with high crest factor signals such as a 4-carrier
W‑CDMA waveform, and the minimum detectable RF power
level varies as the input RF frequency increases. The linear
dynamic range can also be shifted to suit a particular application need. By simply inserting an attenuator in front
of the RF input, the power range is shifted higher by the
amount of the attenuation.

connected to the output of the buffer amplifier inside the
chip. This will prevent overstress on internal devices in
the event that the output is shorted to ground.
The –3dB small-signal bandwidth of the buffer amplifier is
about 22.4MHz and the full-scale rise/fall time can be as
fast as 80ns, limited by the slew rate of the internal circuit
instead. When the output is resistively terminated or open,
the fastest output transient response is achieved when a
large signal is applied to the RF input. The rise time of the
LTC5582 is about 90ns and the fall time is 5µs, respectively,
for full-scale pulsed RF input power when C3 = 8nF. The
speed of the output transient response is dictated mainly
by the filtering capacitor C3 (at least 8nF) at the FLTR Pin.
See the detailed output transient response in the Typical
Performance Characteristics section. When the RF input
has AM content, residual ripple may be present at the
output depending upon the low frequency content of the

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Since the output buffer amplifier of the LTC5582 is capable
of driving an arbitrary capacitive load, the residual ripple
can be further filtered at the output with a series resistor
RSS and a large shunt capacitor CLOAD. See Figure 9. This
lowpass filter also reduces the output noise by limiting
the output noise bandwidth. When this RC network is
designed properly, a fast output transient response can
be maintained with a reduced residual ripple. For example,
we can estimate CLOAD with an output voltage swing of
1.7V at 2140MHz. In order not to allow the maximum
5mA souring current to limit the fall time (about 5μs),
the maximum value of CLOAD can be chosen as follows:
CLOAD ≤ 5mA •
5mA •
0.25µs

Once CLOAD is determined, RSS can be chosen properly
to form a RC low-pass filter with a corner frequency of 1/
[2π(RSS + 100) • CLOAD].
Temperature Compensation of Logarithmic Intercept
The simplified interface schematic of the intercept temperature compensation is shown in Figure 10. The adjustment
of the output voltage can be described by the following
equation with respect to the ambient temperature:
ΔVOUT = –TC1 • (TA – TNOM) – TC2 • (TA – TNOM)2–
detV1 – detV2
where TC1 and TC2 are the 1st-order and 2nd-order
temperature compensation coefficients, respectively; TA
is the actual ambient temperature; and TNOM is the reference room temperature; detV1 and detV2 are the output

In general, the rise time of the LTC5582 is much shorter
than the fall time. However, when the output RC filter is
used, the rise time can be dominated by the time constant
of this filter. Accordingly, the rise time becomes very similar
to the fall time. Although the maximum sinking capability
of the LTC5582 is 5mA, it is recommended that the output

Enable Interface
A simplified schematic of the EN Pin interface is shown
in Figure 13. The enable voltage necessary to turn on the
LTC5582 is 1V. To disable or turn off the chip, this voltage should be below 0.4V. It is important that the voltage
applied to the EN pin should never exceed VCC by more
than 0.3V. Otherwise, the supply current may be sourced
through the upper ESD protection diode connected at the
EN pin. Under no circumstances should voltage be applied
to the EN Pin before the supply voltage is applied to the
VCC pin. If this occurs, damage to the IC may result.

glitch in the internal ESD protection circuits. Depending
on the supply inductance, this could result in a supply
voltage overshooting at the initial transient that exceeds
the maximum rating. A supply voltage ramp time of greater
than 1ms is recommended. In case this voltage ramp time
is not controllable, a small (i.e., 1.5Ω) series resistor
should be inserted in-between VCC Pin and the supply
voltage source to mitigate the problem and self-protect the
IC. The R1 shown in Figure 1 is served for this purpose.
