ABSTRACT:
A full wave rectifier includes an amplifier having a minus input, a plus input and an amplifier output; an input resistor connected between a circuit input and the minus input; and a current bridge having an output terminal connected to the circuit output, a first terminal connected to the minus input and a second terminal connected to the amplifier output. The current bridge includes a first current mirror circuit and a second current mirror circuit. The first current mirror circuit includes a first current source and a second current source, a source end of each current source of the first and second current sources being connected to the first terminal, a drain end of the first current source being connected to the second terminal and a drain end of the second current source being connected to the output terminal. The second current mirror circuit includes a third current source and fourth current source, a source end of each current source of the third and fourth current sources being connected to the second terminal, a drain end of the third current source being connected to the first terminal and a drain end of the fourth current source being connected to the output terminal.
