Agilent 8472B
Agilent offers a complete family of high performance Low Barrier Schottky Diode Detectors which cover the 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz frequency range. These general purpose components are widely used for CW and pulsed power detection, leveling of sweepers, and frequencyresponse testing of other microwave components. These detectors do not require a dc bias and can be used with common oscilloscopes, thus their simplicity of operation and excellent broadband performance make them useful measurement accessories. These detectors use a Low-Barrier Schottky Diode (LBSD), specially fabricated with low origin resistance and low junction capacitance. This results in improved broadband flatness and SWR over point-contact diode detectors, thus yielding more accurate measurements. These detectors also offer very good ruggedness and burnout protection. As with all Agilent detectors, these models integrate the diode with the other circuit elements thus minimizing stray reactances and optimizing broadband performance. For economical field repair, replaceable detector modules are available.

Applications
These detectors can be used in a wide variety of applications ranging from lab and production measurements to systems components. Because of their flatness and match, these detectors can be used for accurately measuring transmission and reflection characteristics in CW or swept-frequency measurements. For these applications in which both flat-frequency response and square-law characteristics are important, Option 423B, 847xB/C-001 provides a matched pair of detectors that track each other within a few tenths of a dB, and Option 423B, 847xB/C-002 (external square-law load) extends the square-law region up to at least 0.1 mW (10 dBm). Other common applications include use with a coupler or power splitter to externally level a source, and to display pulsed-RF and AM-modulated signals. For OEM and systems applications, the broadband flatness and ruggedness of these detectors make them particularly well suited for use in closed-loop leveling circuits in microwave instrumentation.

Square-law response
For many reflection and transmission measurements it is desirable to use the detector in its square-law region where its output voltage is proportional to the input RF power. As shown in figure 5, the LBSD typically operate within 0.5 dB of square-law from the tangential signal sensitivity (TSS) level up to 18 dBm. By specifying Option 423B, 847xB/C-002, a specially selected loading resistor is provided which extends this square-law region to approximately 8 dBm with an associated decrease in sensitivity as shown in figure 5.
Pulse response
The LBSD detectors have extremely good pulse detection characteristics when working into low-capacitance, low-resistance loads. When loaded externally with 50 the LBSD detector can typically display 8 to 12 ns rise times. Figure 6 illustrates the equivalent circuit for the detector, as well as typical values for the diode impedance and the RF bypass capacitor.
