Low Cost Coupling Methods for RF Power Detectors Replace Directional Couplers
- AN91 Linear Technology AN91 describes an RF feedback coupling method which
eliminates the directional coupler. Instead, a 0.4pF ±0.05pF capacitor and 50Ω
resistor are used to feed RF signal back to the LTC power controller. This
method reduces coupling loss variations, cost and lead time. (app note added

Make a truly linear RF Power detector - 09/19/02 EDN Design Ideas /
(added 1/05) Modern high-performance transmitters require accurate monitoring of
RF power, because most cellular standards depend on strict powertransmission levels to
maintain an effective network. Regulation of transmitted-signal strength also lets you
build lower cost systems. Figure 1 shows a waveform-independent circuit that provides
a linear....
