HMC813LC4BTR-R5

Overview

The HMC813LC4BTR-R5 is a Successive Detection Log Video Amplifier (SDLVA) with limited RF output, operating from 1 to 20 GHz. It provides a logging range of 55 dB and features typical fast rise/fall times of 5/10 ns. The log video output slope is typically 15 mV/dB, with maximum recovery times under 15 ns. Designed for high-speed channelized receiver applications, it operates from a single +3.3 V supply while consuming only 153 mA. The device is housed in a compact 4x4 mm SMT ceramic package.

Feature Summary

• Successive detection log video amplifier architecture providing wide dynamic range signal processing
• Integrated limited RF output capability alongside the primary log video function
• High-speed transient response characterized by rapid rise and fall times
• Single positive voltage supply operation simplifying power distribution requirements

Applications

• Electronic Warfare (EW), ELINT & IFM Receivers
• Direction Finding (DF) Radar Systems
• Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) Systems
• Broadband Test & Measurement Equipment
• Power Measurement & Control Circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices channels or certified distributors. Confirm lot traceability and RoHS compliance status prior to integration. Ensure handling precautions are strictly followed due to Class 1A ESD sensitivity ratings. Validate that the specific ordering suffix matches the required reel packaging configuration for surface mount assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide frequency range up to 20 GHz is required alongside precise logarithmic signal detection. The integrated RF output allows for simultaneous envelope monitoring without external circuitry. Consider the single-supply requirement and low current consumption for power-constrained designs. Verify that the 55 dB logging range meets the system's dynamic input power specifications.
