The default value of the logarithmic slope at the output VLOG is The AD8304 is a monolithic logarithmic detector optimized for accurately scaled to 10 mV/dB (200 mV/decade). The resistance the measurement of low frequency signal power in fiber optic at this output is laser-trimmed to 5 kΩ, allowing the slope to be systems. It uses an advanced translinear technique to provide an lowered by shunting it with an external resistance; the addition exceptionally large dynamic range in a versatile and easily used of a capacitor at this pin provides a simple low-pass filter. The form. Its wide measurement range and accuracy are achieved intermediate voltage VLOG is buffered in an output stage that can using proprietary design techniques and precise laser trimming. swing to within about 100 mV of ground (or VN) and the posi- In most applications only a single positive supply, VP, of 5 V tive supply, VP, and provides a peak current drive capacity of will be required, but 3.0 V to 5.5 V can be used, and certain ±20 mA.
