ADL6012-EVALZ

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADL6012-EVALZ provides efficient evaluation of the
ADL6012
2 GHz to 67 GHz envelope detector. The
has fast rise time and fall time responses, around 1 ns
depending on input power levels, with an output envelope
bandwidth of 500 MHz. The ADL6012-EVALZ provides the
basic connections for the RF input signal and the envelope
output voltage. Differential envelope outputs on the ADL6012-
EVALZ can be directly connected to a high speed oscilloscope
to evaluate the differential envelope tracking capabilities.
For full details on the ADL6012, see the
Consult the
ADL6012
data sheet in conjunction with this user
guide when using the ADL6012-EVALZ evaluation board.
