AD636 – True RMS to DC Converter

Working on low signals in the range of 0 mV to 200 mV rms, AD636 makes a precision AC to DC signal conditioner for Instrumentation. DMM, Data Loggers and Process Indicators can use this.

Using this chip you can make a True RMS Voltmeter for your Lab or Project.nn

The AD636 is easy to use. The device is factory-trimmed at the wafer level for input and output offset, positive and negative waveform symmetry (dc reversal error), and full-scale accuracy at 200 mV rms. Therefore, no external trims are required to achieve full-rated accuracy.
