ABSTRACT:
A temperature compensated power detector utilizes a temperature compensating diode connected to an inverting input of an amplifier to enable the amplifier to substantially cancel out undesirable temperature effects caused by a power level detector diode coupled to the non-inverting input of the amplifier. As a result, the amplifier output voltage tends to remain constant over temperature in response to a fixed power level being applied to the detector. A lookup table is utilized to determine the power level corresponding to a power detector output voltage of a particular magnitude.
