III-V RF power and log detector
Maturity plannedTargets III-V processDifficulty MediumPriority 1
Diode power detector and successive-detection log amplifier on GaAs/InP producing a DC voltage proportional to RF input power for PA control loops and AGC.
Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
