Abstract
A signal rectifier circuit with attack time changeable in response to an input signal level is disclosed which has a plurality of current transmitting paths connected in parallel between an input terminal and an output terminal. There is also provided a rectifier in every signal transmitting path or a circuit between the output terminal and the parallel circuit of the signal transmitting paths. A capacitor in combination with resistance components involved in the respective signal transmitting paths provides a signal smoothing operation. The signal transmitting paths are given different offset voltages which allow the attack time of the smoothing operation to vary as a function of the input signal level.
