Abstract

A simple integrable circuit for implementing a precision full-wave rectifier circuit in CMOS technology, which can be operated from a low-voltage power supply, is described. The realization method is based on the use of a MOS class AB configuration to improve the high frequency performance. The circuit exhibits a very sharp corner in the dc transfer characteristic. Simulation results showing the performance of the proposed circuit are also presented.
