ABSTRACT:
A detector/video amplifier (DVA)includes a microwave monolithic integrated circuit (MMIC) detector processor for converting a modulated RF input signal to a baseband signal in video and a MMIC amplifier coupled to and located on a single MMIC chip with the MMIC detector processor. The MMIC amplifier amplifies the baseband signal to the video output signal. The DVA is temperature compensated and achieves detection across the full Ku band (12-18 GHz).
