The use of Operational amplifiers can improve the performance of a wide variety of signal processing circuits. In rectifier circuits, the voltage drop that occurs with an ordinary semiconductor ...

Full-wave rectifiers with capacitor filters are, without question, the workhorse — and the unsung hero — of the modern electronic world and for the gadgets we have come to enjoy. That being said, it ...

This application note covers a wide range of applications, such as half-wave rectifiers, full-wave rectifiers, peak detectors and clamps. Many of the circuits are simple in terms of component count.
