A classic analog application is the full-wave precision rectifier (absolute value) function. Many variations exist on this theme, each with its own supposed (often rather minor and sometimes downright ...

Schemes of two-half-period rectifiers on op amps with switching inputs in accordance with the polarity of the input voltage are given. The switching of inputs is performed by a control signal taken ...

Conventional rectifiers employing diodes can’t be used with low-amplitude signals. This Idea for Design describes a circuit using Analog Devices' AD844 op amps to create a mixed-mode precision ...

And here it is, modelled using LTSpice. It is the same circuit as the classic simple precision rectifier (set to pass the negative half-sine), but with the non-inverting input of the op-amp connected ...

Current-mode full-wave rectifiers and precision rectification techniques represent vital advancements in signal processing, enabling the conversion of alternating current (AC) signals into a stable ...
