Abstract

This chapter studies the different types of precision rectifier and peak detectors. The precision rectifier is a configuration obtained with an operational amplifier in order to have a circuit behave like an ideal rectifier. It is very useful for high-precision signal processing. Peak detector circuits are used to determine the maximum or minimum peak value of an input signal.
