Glossary of Terms: DLVAs, ERDLVAs, RF Log Amplifiers and Log IF Amplifiers

From Akon, Inc.
 

 
This is a general list of terms and relationships commonly used in specifying DLVAs (Detector Log Video Amplifiers), ERDLVAs (Extended Range Detector Log Video Amplifiers), RF Log Amplifiers and Log IF Amplifiers. Graphs are included.
Products & Services
RF receivers are electronic devices that enable a particular radio signal to be separated from all others being received and converted into a format for video, voice, or data. Search by Specification | Learn more about RF Receivers
RF band reject filters are tuned circuits that prevent the passage of signals within a specified band of frequencies. These devices are also known as bandstop or notch filters. Search by Specification | Learn more about RF Band Reject Filters
RF modules are partially finished circuits that can be incorporated into larger designs. Search by Specification | Learn more about RF Modules
RF low pass filters pass signals from low frequencies and reject signals from high frequencies. Search by Specification | Learn more about RF Low Pass Filters
RF upconverters and RF downconverters are used to change the frequency of an RF signal on a large scale. Learn more about RF Upconverters and RF Downconverters
