This video shows how to use RIGOL oscilloscope’s peak detector feature to measure narrow pulses of signal. In the experiment, the DG5000 arbitrary waveform generator is used to produce the signal ...

If your system's signal processing requirements in-clude peak detection and amplification, consider a simple circuit that will satisfy both needs and save hardware. The single-supply circuit shown in ...

I recently received an email from a student who needed to design a circuit to detect peaks in a 10-MHz analog signal. His plan was to use an A/D converter sampling at well beyond the Nyquist frequency ...

The following circuit improves upon a simple peak detector by using a high frequency op-amp and feedback circuitry. The result is better accuracy and more sensitivity at the input. To view the ...
