An Logarithmic amplifier is good example of why we need to be careful to call these types of devices analog, not linear devices – because these are certainly not linear. Log amps can be a ...

Download this article in PDF format. Logarithmic amplifiers with their log functionality are useful for compressing wide dynamic-range signals whereby the measured quantities are in decibels (dB).

Plessey Semiconductors has announced the launch of a logarithmic/limiting amplifier with 75dB dynamic range. The PS13201 log amp is a pin for pin, drop in compatible replacement for the original ...

The MAX4206 logarithmic amplifier computes the log ratio of an input current relative to a reference current (externally or internally generated) and provides a corresponding voltage output with a ...

The principle of the construction of a logarithmic amplifier using semi-conductor Germanium diodes as logarithmic elements was described in Report B-056, Serial No. 1953/14. This report describes an ...

FEMTO’s logarithmic wideband voltage amplifier HLVA-100 has a wide dynamic range of 0dB to 80dB, with DC coupled input and a fast rise/fall time of 5ns for a 40dB step. The noise for the device is ...

Plessey Semiconductors today announced the release of the PS13201 Logarithmic/Limiting Amplifier. The PS13201 log amp is a pin-for-pin, drop-in compatible replacement for the original Plessey SL3522 ...

This report describes a compact logarithmic amplifier using a semi-conductor as the logarithmic element. Very high writing speeds are obtainable with this instrument, which may therefore be used for ...

It’s a staple of spy thriller movies, that the protagonist has some kind of electronic scanner with which he theatrically searches his hotel room to reveal the bad guys’ attempt to bug him. The bug of ...
