Schottky Diode Radio Frequency Detector Probe With Amplitude Linearity Compensation

摘要

A passive radio frequency probe that can detect low level RF signals is disclosed. Schottky diodes are used in the probe to convert alternating current (AC) signals to direct current (DC) signals on a one-to-one basis within a given tolerance. The probe is used with a DC voltmeter to permit measurements of radio frequency signals.
