Summary:The design of a high performance envelope detector, which does not need the traditional compensation between keeping and tracking required in these circuits is presented. Simulation results are offered, comparing both the conventional and the proposed envelope detector and the superior performance of this circuit is shown. Tracking is 12.8 times faster and ripple is a third of that corresponding to the conventional counterpart for the same integration capacitance.
