This unit is DC coupled and employs a RF choke at the input (DC short). If the application

calls for the input to sink current there will approximately be an additional 1 mV of output

offset voltage for each 3 mA of current. Sink current should be limited to 250 mA max to

avoid choke burnout.

For higher supply voltages, up to ±22 volts, the positive supply pin must include a series

current limiting resistor Rs = (Vs – 5)/0.01. (e.g.: Vs = 15v, Rs = 1K)

Average power detection is obtained at power levels below approximately –13 dBm.

For best pulse response both supply pins should be bypassed with an additional

1.0 µF capacitor. The unit contains 0.01 µF internal capacitors.
