GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADL5504 is a TruPwr™ mean-responding (true rms) power
detector for use in high frequency receiver and transmitter signal
chains from 450 MHz to 6000 MHz. Requiring only a single
supply between 2.5 V and 3.3 V, the detector draws less than
1.8 mA. The input is internally ac-coupled and has a nominal
input impedance of 500 Ω. The rms output is a linear-responding
dc voltage with a conversion gain of 1.87 V/V rms at 900 MHz.
The ADL5504 is a highly accurate, easy to use means of
determining the rms of complex waveforms. It can be used for
power measurements of both simple and complex waveforms
but is particularly useful for measuring high crest factor (high
peak-to-rms ratio) signals, such as W-CDMA, CDMA2000,
WiMAX, WLAN, and LTE waveforms.
The on-chip modulation filter provides adequate averaging for
most waveforms. For more complex waveforms, an external
capacitor at the FLTR pin can be used for supplementary signal
demodulation. An on-chip, 100 Ω series resistance at the output,
combined with an external shunt capacitor, creates a low-pass filter
response that reduces the residual ripple in the dc output voltage.
The ADL5504 offers excellent temperature stability across a
30 dB range and near 0 dB measurement error across temperature
over the top portion of the dynamic range. In addition to its
temperature stability, the ADL5504 offers low process variations
that further reduce calibration complexity.
The power detector operates from −40°C to +85°C and is
available in a 6-ball, 0.8 mm × 1.2 mm, wafer level chip scale
package. It is fabricated on a high fT silicon BiCMOS process.

ADL5504
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ADL5504 employs two-stage detection. The critical aspect
of this technical approach is the concept of first stripping the
carrier to reveal the envelope and then performing the required
analog computation of rms.
RMS CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION AND FILTERING
The rms processing is executed using a proprietary translinear
technique. This method is a mathematically accurate rms
computing approach and allows achieving unprecedented rms
accuracies for complex modulation signals irrespective of the
crest factor of the input signal. An integrating filter capacitor
performs the square-domain averaging. The VRMS output can
be expressed as
T2
VRMS = A ×
∫ VIN × dt
2
T1
T2 − T1
For improved accuracy with more complex RF waveforms
(with modulation components extending down into the
kilohertz region), more filtering is necessary to supplement
the on-chip, low-pass filter. For this reason, the FLTR pin is
provided; a capacitor attached between this pin and VPOS
can extend the averaging time to very low frequencies (see
the Selecting the Square-Domain Filter and Output Low-Pass
Filter section). Any external capacitor acts on a 1 kΩ resistor to
yield a new corner frequency for the rms filter (see Figure 1).
Adequate filtering ensures the accuracy of the rms measurement;
however, some ripple or ac residual can still be present on the
dc output. To reduce this ripple, an external shunt capacitor can
be used at the output to form a low-pass filter with the on-chip,
100 Ω resistance (see the Selecting the Square-Domain Filter
and Output Low-Pass Filter section).
OUTPUT BUFFER
Note that A is a scaling parameter that is determined by the
on-chip resistor ratio, and there are no other scaling parameters
involved in this computation, which means that the rms output
is inherently free from any sources of error due to temperature,
supply, and process variations.
FILTERING
A buffer takes the internal rms signal and amplifies it accordingly before it is output on the VRMS pin. The output stage
of the rms buffer is a common source PMOS with a resistive
load to provide a rail-to-rail output. The buffer has a 100 Ω
on-chip series resistance on the output, allowing for easy lowpass filtering.
An important aspect of rms-dc conversion is the need for
averaging (the function is root-mean-square). The on-chip
averaging in the square domain has a corner frequency of
approximately 40 kHz and is sufficient for common modulation
signals, such as CDMA-, CDMA2000-, WCDMA-, and QPSK-/
QAM-based OFDM (for example, LTE, WLAN, and WiMAX).

ADL5504
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
BASIC CONNECTIONS
Resistive Tap RF Input
Figure 34 shows the basic connections for the ADL5504. The
device is powered by a single supply between 2.5 V and 3.3 V,
with a quiescent current of 1.8 mA. The VPOS pin is decoupled
using 100 pF and 0.1 μF capacitors.
Figure 36 shows a technique for coupling the input signal into
the ADL5504 that can be applicable when the input signal is
much larger than the input range of the ADL5504. A series
resistor combines with the input impedance of the ADL5504
to attenuate the input signal. Because this series resistor forms
a divider with the frequency-dependent input impedance, the
apparent gain changes greatly with frequency. However, this
method has the advantage of very little power being tapped
off in RF power transmission applications. If the resistor is
large compared with the impedance of the transmission line,
the VSWR of the system is relatively unaffected.
The rms averaging can be augmented by placing additional
capacitance at CFLTR. The ac residual can be reduced further by
increasing the output capacitance, COUT. The combination of
the internal 100 Ω output resistance and COUT produces a lowpass filter to reduce output ripple of the VRMS output (see the
Selecting the Square-Domain Filter and Output Low-Pass Filter
section for more details).

Figure 34. Basic Connections for ADL5504
RF INPUT INTERFACING
The input impedance of the ADL5504 decreases with increasing
frequency in both its resistive and capacitive components (see
Figure 9). The resistive component varies from 370 Ω at 900 MHz
to about 240 Ω at 2600 MHz.
A number of options exist for input matching. For operation
at multiple frequencies, a 75 Ω shunt to ground, as shown in
Figure 35, provides the best overall match. For use at a single
frequency, a resistive or a reactive match can be used. By plotting
the input impedance on a Smith chart, the best value for a
resistive match can be calculated. (Both input impedance and
input capacitance can vary by up to ±20% around their nominal
values.) Where VSWR is critical, the match can be improved
with a series inductor placed before the shunt component.
For example, if a power amplifier with a maximum output power
of 28 dBm is matched to the ADL5504 input at 5 dBm, then a
−23 dB attenuation factor is required. At 900 MHz, the input
resistance, RIN, is 370 Ω.
RSERIES = (370 Ω)(1 − 10−23/20)/(10−23/20) = 4870 Ω
Thus, for an attenuation of −23 dB, a series resistance of
approximately 4.87 kΩ is needed.

ADL5504
Multiple RF Inputs
Output Swing
Figure 37 shows a technique for combining multiple RF input
signals to the ADL5504. Some applications can share a single
detector for multiple bands. Three 16.5 Ω resistors in a T network
combine the three 50 Ω terminations (including the ADL5504
with the shunt 75 Ω matching component). The broadband
resistive combiner ensures that each port of the T network sees
a 50 Ω termination. Because there are only 6 dB of isolation
from one port of the combiner to the other ports, only one
band should be active at a time.
At 900 MHz, the VRMS output voltage is nominally 1.87× the
input rms voltage (a conversion gain of 1.87 V/V rms). The output
voltage swings from near ground to 2.5 V on a 3.0 V supply.

LINEARITY
Because the ADL5504 is a linear responding device, plots of output
voltage vs. input voltage result in a straight line (see Figure 4
and Figure 5) and the dynamic range in decibels (dB) is not
clearly visible. It is more useful to plot the error on a logarithmic scale, as shown in Figure 7. The deviation of the plot from
the ideal straight line characteristic is caused by input stage
clipping at the high end and by signal offsets at the low end.
However, offsets at the low end can be either positive or negative; therefore, the linearity error vs. input level plots (see
Figure 7) can also trend upwards at the low end. Figure 10 to
Figure 12 and Figure 16 to Figure 18 show error distributions
for a large population of devices at specific frequencies over
temperature.
The ADL5504 has a ±1 dB error detection range of about 30 dB,
as shown in Figure 10 to Figure 12 and Figure 16 to Figure 18.
The error is referred to the best-fit line defined in the linear
region of the output response (see the Device Calibration and
Error Calculation section for more details). Below an input
power of −18 dBm, the response is no longer linear and begins
to lose accuracy. In addition, depending on the supply voltage,
saturation may limit the detection accuracy above 12 dBm.
Calibration points should be chosen in the linear region,
avoiding the nonlinear ranges at the high and low extremes.
Figure 38 shows a distribution of the output response vs. the
input for multiple devices. The ADL5504 loses accuracy at low
input powers as the output response begins to fan out. As the
input power is reduced, the spread of the output response
increases along with the error.
10
1
0.01
0.001
It is also apparent in Figure 7 that the error at the lower portion
of the dynamic range tends to shift up as frequency is increased.
This is due to the calibration points chosen, −14 dBm and +8 dBm
(see the Device Calibration and Error Calculation section).
The absolute value cell has an input impedance that varies with
frequency. The result is a decrease in the actual voltage across the
squaring cell as the frequency increases, reducing the conversion
gain. The dynamic range is near constant over frequency, but
with a decrease in conversion gain as frequency is increased.

Figure 8 shows the output swings of the ADL5504 to a CW input
for various supply voltages. Only at the lowest supply voltage
(2.5 V) is there a reduction in the dynamic range as the input
headroom decreases.
Figure 38. Output vs. Input Level Distribution of 50 Devices,
900 MHz Frequency, 3.0 V Supply
Although some devices follow the ideal linear response at very
low input powers, not all devices continue the ideal linear regression to a near 0 V y-intercept. Some devices exhibit output
responses that rapidly decrease and some flatten out.
With no RF signal applied, the ADL5504 has a typical output
offset of 10 mV (with a maximum of 100 mV) on VRMS.

AC RESIDUAL (mV p-p)
The ADL5504 is capable of sourcing a VRMS output current of
approximately 3 mA. The output current is sourced through the
on-chip, 100 Ω series resistor; therefore, any load resistor forms
a voltage divider with this on-chip resistance. It is recommended
that the ADL5504 VRMS output drive high resistance loads to
preserve output swing. If an application requires driving a low
resistance load (as well as in cases where increasing the nominal
conversion gain is desired), a buffering circuit is necessary.

Figure 39 and Figure 40 show the effects on the residual ripple
vs. the output and square-domain filter capacitor values at two
communication standards with high peak-to-average ratios.
Note that there is a trade-off between ac residual and response
time. Large filter capacitances increase the turn-on and pulse
response times (see Figure 28 to Figure 33). Figure 41 shows the
effect of the two filtering options, the output filter and the
square-domain filter capacitor, on the pulse response time of
the ADL5504. For more information on the effects of the filter
capacitances on the response, see the Power Consumption,
Enable, and Power-On/Power-Off Response Time section.

CAPACITANCE (nF)

The square-domain filter capacitance of the ADL5504 can be
augmented by connecting a capacitor between Pin 1 (FLTR) and
Pin 2 (VPOS). In addition, the VRMS output of the ADL5504 can
be filtered directly by placing a capacitor between VRMS (Pin 5)
and ground. The combination of the on-chip, 100 Ω output
series resistance and the external shunt capacitor forms a lowpass filter to reduce the residual ac.

08437-040

The internal filter capacitor of the ADL5504 provides averaging
in the square domain but leaves some residual ac on the output.
Signals with high peak-to-average ratios, such as W-CDMA or
CDMA2000, can produce ac residual levels on the ADL5504
VRMS dc output. To reduce the effects of these low frequency
components in the waveforms, some additional filtering is
required.

POWER CONSUMPTION, ENABLE, AND POWERON/POWER-OFF RESPONSE TIME
PULSED RFIN
VRMS (150mV/DIV)
The quiescent current consumption of the ADL5504 varies
linearly with the size of the input signal from approximately
1.8 mA for no signal up to 9 mA at an input level of 0.7 V rms
(10 dBm, referred to 50 Ω). There is little variation in supply
current across power supply voltage or temperature, as shown in
Figure 27.
The ADL5504 can be disabled either by pulling the ENBL (Pin 6)
to COMM (Pin 4) or by removing the power supply to the device.
Disabling the device via the ENBL function reduces the leakage
current to less than 1 μA. When the device is disabled, the output
impedance increases to approximately 5.5 kΩ on VRMS.
The turn-on time and pulse response is strongly influenced
by the sizes of the square-domain filter and the output shunt
capacitor. Figure 42 shows a plot of the output response to an
RF pulse on the RFIN pin, with a 0.1 μF output filter capacitor and
a no square-domain filter capacitor. The falling edge is particularly
dependent on the output shunt capacitance, as shown in Figure 42.

The square-domain filter improves the rms accuracy for high
crest factors (see the Selecting the Square-Domain Filter and
Output Low-Pass Filter section), but it can hinder the response
time. For optimum response time and low ac residual, both the
square-domain filter and the output filter should be used. The
square-domain filter at FLTR can be reduced to improve response
time, and the remaining ac residual can be decreased by using
the output filter, which has a smaller time constant.
DEVICE CALIBRATION AND ERROR CALCULATION
Because slope and intercept vary from device to device, boardlevel calibration must be performed to achieve high accuracy.
In general, calibration is performed by applying two input power
levels to the ADL5504 and measuring the corresponding output
voltages. The calibration points are generally chosen to be within
the linear operating range of the device. The best-fit line is
characterized by calculating the conversion gain (or slope) and
intercept using the following equations:

Figure 42. Output Response to Various RF Input Pulse Levels, 3 V Supply,
900 MHz Frequency, Square-Domain Filter Open, COUT = 0.1 μF
To improve the falling edge of the enable and pulse responses, a
resistor can be placed in parallel with the output shunt capacitor.
The added resistance helps to discharge the output filter capacitor.
Although this method reduces the power-off time, the added
load resistor also attenuates the output (see the Output Drive
Capability and Buffering section).
Gain = (VVRMS2 − VVRMS1)/(VIN2 − VIN1)
(3)
Intercept = VVRMS1 − (Gain × VIN1)
(4)
where:
VINx is the rms input voltage to RFIN.
VVRMSx is the voltage output at VRMS.
Once gain and intercept are calculated, an equation can be
written that allows calculation of an (unknown) input power
based on the measured output voltage.
VIN = (VVRMS − Intercept)/Gain
(5)
For an ideal (known) input power, the law conformance error of
the measured data can be calculated as
ERROR (dB) = 20 × log [(VVRMS, MEASURED − Intercept)/
(Gain × VIN, IDEAL)]

Figure 44 also shows error plots for the output voltage at −40°C
and +85°C. These error plots are calculated using the gain and
intercept at 25°C. This is consistent with calibration in a mass
production environment where calibration at temperature is not
practical.

In some applications, very high accuracy is required at just one
power level or over a reduced input range. For example, in a
wireless transmitter, the accuracy of the high power amplifier
(HPA) is most critical at or close to full power. The ADL5504
offers a tight error distribution in the high input power range,
as shown in Figure 45. The high accuracy range, beginning
around 2 dBm at 1900 MHz, offers 12 dB of ±0.15 dB detection
error over temperature. Multiple point calibration at ambient
temperature in the reduced range offers precise power
measurement with near 0 dB error from −40°C to +85°C.

This plot is a useful tool for estimating temperature drift at a
particular power level with respect to the (nonideal) response
at ambient temperature. The linearity and dynamic range tend
to be improved artificially with this type of plot because the
ADL5504 does not perfectly follow the ideal linear equation
(especially outside of its linear operating range). Achieving
this level of accuracy in an end application requires calibration
at multiple points in the operating range of the device.

CALIBRATION FOR IMPROVED ACCURACY
Another way of presenting the error function of the ADL5504
is shown in Figure 45. In this case, the decibel (dB) error at hot
and cold temperatures is calculated with respect to the transfer
function at ambient temperature. This is a key difference in
comparison to Figure 44, in which the error was calculated
with respect to the ideal linear transfer function at ambient
temperature. When this alternative technique is used, the
error at ambient temperature becomes equal to 0 by definition
(see Figure 45).

Figure 44 shows a plot of the error at 25°C, the temperature
at which the ADL5504 is calibrated. Note that the error is not 0;
this is because the ADL5504 does not perfectly follow the ideal
linear equation, even within its operating region. The error at
the calibration points is, however, equal to 0 by definition.

DRIFT OVER A REDUCED TEMPERATURE RANGE
DEVICE HANDLING
Figure 46 shows the error over temperature for a 1900 MHz
input signal. The error due to drift over temperature consistently remains within ±0.20 dB and only begins to exceed this
limit when the ambient temperature rises above +55°C and
drops below −30°C. For all frequencies using a reduced temperature range, higher measurement accuracy is achievable.
The wafer level chip scale package consists of solder bumps
connected to the active side of the die. The part is Pb-free and
RoHS compliant with 95.5% tin, 4.0% silver, and 0.5% copper
solder bump composition. The WLCSP can be mounted on
printed circuit boards using standard surface-mount assembly
techniques; however, caution should be taken to avoid damaging
the die. See the AN-617 Application Note, MicroCSP Wafer
Level Chip Scale Package, for additional information. WLCSP
devices are bumped die; therefore, the exposed die may be
sensitive to light, which can influence specified limits. Lighting
in excess of 600 lux can degrade performance.

EVALUATION BOARD
Land Pattern and Soldering Information
Figure 47 shows the schematic of the ADL5504 evaluation board.
The board is powered by a single supply in the 2.5 V to 3.3 V
range. The power supply is decoupled by 100 pF and 0.1 μF
capacitors. The device must be enabled by switching SW1A
to the position labeled on.
Pad diameters of 0.28 mm are recommended with a solder paste
mask opening of 0.38 mm. For the RF input trace, a trace width
of 0.30 mm is used, which corresponds to a 50 Ω characteristic
impedance for the dielectric material being used (FR4). All traces
going to the pads are tapered down to 0.15 mm. For the RFIN
line, the length of the tapered section is 0.20 mm.
The RF input has a broadband match of 50 Ω using a single
75 Ω resistor at R7A. More precise matching at spot frequencies
is possible (see the RF Input Interfacing section).
Table 4 details the various configuration options of the evaluation
board. Figure 48 shows the layout of the evaluation board.

Description
Ground and supply vector pins.
Power supply decoupling. Nominal supply decoupling of 0.01 μF and 100 pF.
C3A
Filter capacitor. The internal rms averaging capacitor can be augmented by placing
additional capacitance in C3A.
RF input interface. The 75 Ω resistor at R7A combines with the ADL5504 internal
input impedance to give a broadband input impedance of around 50 Ω.
Output filtering. The combination of the internal 100 Ω output resistance and C4A
produce a low-pass filter to reduce output ripple of the VRMS output. The output
can be scaled down using the resistor divider pads, R2A and R3A.
Device enable. When the SW1A is set to the on position, the ENBL pin is connected to the
supply and the ADL5504 is in enable mode. In the opposite switch position, the ENBL pin
is grounded (through the 0 Ω resistor) putting the device in power-down mode.
