Title: Comparing RMS and ENVELOPE detectors for modding AM receivers
Post by: IN3IEX on November 04, 2011, 07:33:05 AM
The recent availability of low cost True RMS demodulators for AM signals has prompted
the quest for more knowledge about the performances of RMS AM demodulators
compared to ENVELOPE AM demodulators.
Both are non-linear circuits, therefore the answer may come from SPICE simulations.....

It really needs it.
