I'm attempting to design a circuit to accept signals from four different solenoids, and to then combine them all into a single, DC signal. So I think I need some sort of 4-phase bridge rectifier, but my voltages are on the order of a few mV.
Most bridge rectifiers have forward voltages that are too high for this application, and I can't seem to find any diodes with sufficiently small forward voltages for me to build my own rectifier.
How should I approach this problem? Oh and I can't use active circuit elements (op amps, transistors, etc) to amplify voltage.
