Hello!
Can you please advise me on the way forward. I have a project to determine the seperation between 40MHz bursts of signals. Zero crossing detection would have been ideal but the signal is quite noisy. I therefore am trying to build a circuit that detects the occurrence of a peak and generates a pulse upon said detection. These pulses are then used to measure the time.
So this is different from the standard peak detector in that I do not want to know and do not care what the peak value is. I want to know the time of this peak. The result is that the peak detector has to track the signal and pulse once it starts decreasing. I am stumped
