Abstract
This invention provides a peak signal detecting device by which a peak of an input signal can be accurately detected even if a noise is caused. A level slice circuit (3) outputs a level slice signal S3 which turns to High/Low depending upon whether an absolute value of a reading signal S0 is more/less than a threshold value VT1. A level slice circuit (5) outputs a level slice signal S5 which turns to High/Low depending upon whether an absolute value of a differentiated signal S1 is more/less than a threshold value VT2. A delay circuit (6) delays a leading edge of the level slice signal S5 for a period T1 and its trailing edge for a period T2 to produce a delay signal S6. At this time, this process is cancelled when the High level of the level slice signal S5 is less than T1. A gate circuit (4) outputs a conjunction of a zero cross signal S2, level slice signal S3 and delay signal S6 as a gate signal S4' (peak detecting signal).
