Hi,
I'm working on a project right now where I need a precision rectifier and a peak detector. For the precision rectifier, I was planning on using a diode and op-amp. For the peak detector, I'm a little confused. I've a some Googling, but I'm not sure how to design the peak detector. Sensitivity is a BIG issue, I need it to be pretty sensitive. 0.05V-0.1V at low frequencies not exceeding 60Hz.
I attaching the two circuits I was thinking of implementing. I'm not sure how to modify them for my specific purposes?
I was also thinking of this http://freecircuitdiagram.com/2008/09/07/precision-half-wave-peak-detector/ which claims to be precise under 100mV, but it uses a LF351 which appears to be discontinued.
