DLVA log video amplifiers
DLVA log video amplifiers detect an RF or microwave input and amplify the resulting video signal with a logarithmic response. They are used when the useful information is in the envelope, pulse level or fast amplitude change rather than in a slow average-power reading.
Pulse and transient monitoring
Key data includes input dynamic range, frequency coverage, log linearity, video bandwidth, rise time, recovery behavior, output swing, noise floor, maximum input level and operating temperature. These values affect radar receiver monitoring, EW measurement paths, threshold detection, pulse amplitude logging and RF test equipment that must preserve timing behavior.
