SL1615

WIDEBAND LOG IF STRIP AMPLIFIER

The SL1615 is a bipolar monolithic integrated circuit

wideband amplifier intended for use in successive detection

logarithmic IF strips, operating at centre frequencies between

10MHz and 60MHz. The device provides amplification,

limiting and rectification, is suitable for direct coupling and

incorporates supply line decoupling. The mid-band voltage

gain of the SL1615 is typically 12dB.
