Using only a single transistor and few passive components, you can build a fairly sensitive peak detector. circuit This peak detector circuit is suitable for audio application, since the average sum of positive and negative cycle of audio signal has equal value. You can find a peak signal although you only detect the peak of [...]

Metal Detector Circuit Topology One of the simplest method of metal detecting is by beat frequency oscillator. Basically, the circuit consist of two balanced oscillator. One oscillator provides the reference signal, and other oscillator is acting as the detector element. The reference oscillator’s frequency is fix, while the detector oscillator is variable depending on [...]

Implementing peak-detector circuits is very easy with the CA3130, as shown in schematic diagram of this circuit. The figure below shows the schematic diagram of the peak detector circuit. The upper section is peak-positive and the lower section is peak-negative circuit. Please note that with large-signal inputs, the bandwidth of the peak-negative circuit [...]

To know someone is lying or not we can use lie detector. This is a simple lie detector that can be made in minutes. It works to detect the someone who telling lie but it is not as sophisticated as the ones the professionals use. Here is the schematic diagram of this circuit: [...]

Fast peak detector requires special amplifier features. The output stage must have high slew rate to keep up with the intermediate stages of the amplifier. This condition causes either a long overload or DC accuracy errors. The amplifier must deliver large currents into the capacitive load of the detector to maintain a high slew rate [...]

The circuit below is a schematic diagram of a fast pulse detector. At 100 ns or wider pulse width, the detection should be error free. At 60 ns pulse width, the detection error should be under 10%. This circuit should be used to detect at least 100 ns wide pulse to ensure an [...]
