Abstract
A diode detector comprising a detector network adapted to detect and multiply the detected voltage coupled to a divider network that comprise diodes in equal number to the number of diodes in the detector network, provides a passive detector applicable to any application requiring a small, efficient, high output, inexpensive temperature compensated detector for use as demodulator or as power to voltage converter. Integrating a portion of the divider network in the detector/multiplier network allows control over the minimum input impedance of the detector.
