VOLTAGE INPUTS

The LOG101 gives the best performance with current inputs.

Voltage inputs may be handled directly with series resistors,

but the dynamic input range is limited to approximately three

decades of input voltage by voltage noise and offsets. The

transfer function of Equation (13) applies to this configuration.

APPLICATION CIRCUITS

LOG RATIO

One of the more common uses of log ratio amplifiers is

to measure absorbance. A typical application is shown in

Figure 9.

Absorbance of the sample is A = log

1´/ λ1

(3)

If D1 and D2 are matched A ∝ (1V) logI1/I2

(4)

DATA COMPRESSION

In many applications the compressive effects of the logarith-

mic transfer function are useful. For example, a LOG101

preceding a 12-bit Analog-to-Digital (A/D) converter can

produce the dynamic range equivalent to a 20-bit converter.

OPERATION ON SINGLE SUPPLY

Many applications do not have the dual supplies required to

operate the LOG101. Figure 10 shows the LOG101 config-

ured for operation with a single +5V supply.
