General Description

The HMC-C054 Power Detector is designed for RF power measurement, and control applications for frequencies up to 2 GHz. The detector provides a “true RMS” representation of any RF/IF input signal. The output is a temperature compensated monotonic, representation of real signal power, measured with an

input sensing range of 70 dB.
