A niche chip (LT4320) for mains powered AC -> low volt DC "linear" based psu ?

<< < (15/20) > >>

resistor:
Could this chip be used for AM demodulation as an envelope detector?  Or would the feedback mechanism interfere with the intentional amplitude variations?

I have very little experience in this area - but note possible limitations : 600Hz max AC (ver2), 6VAC min, 100-220uF sec min.

BravoV:
Fyi, this chip max out at only 600 Hz, not even 1 KHz, AM modulation is way-way higher isn't it ?

resistor:
OK, true, the frequency limitation would kill this for actual AM radio.  But could it be used as an envelope detector for a frequency that was inside its range?

Just a quick question, have you tried it at over 600hz?
Maybe a siggen? or if you need some oomph behind the siggen, feed it through an audio amp first.
