PRODUCTION DATA
The circuit in Figure 7-17 uses a single supply to half-wave rectify a sinusoid centered about ground. Ri limits current into the amplifier caused by the input voltage exceeding the supply voltage. Full-wave rectification is provided by the circuit in Figure 7-19.
In Figure 7-23, dielectric absorption and leakage is minimized by using a polystyrene or polyethylene hold capacitor. The droop rate is primarily determined by the value of CHOLD and diode leakage current. The ultra-low input current of the LMC648x has a negligible effect on droop. For applications requiring ultra-low input bias current, see the OPA928.
The high CMRR (82dB) of the LMC648x allows excellent accuracy throughout the rail-to-rail dynamic capture range of the circuit.
The low-pass filter circuit in Figure 7-25 can be used as an anti-aliasing filter with the same voltage supply as the ADC.
Filter designs can also take advantage of the LMC648x ultra-low input current. The ultra-low input current yields negligible offset error even when large value resistors are used. This in turn allows the use of smaller valued capacitors that take less board space and cost less.
