Abstract
A circuit exhibiting rectification and amplification characteristics. In particular, a full-wave rectifier, wherein the rectifier has the ability to simultaneously amplify and rectify an input voltage. The circuit comprises transconductor circuit, rectifying circuit and amplifying circuit. The transconductor circuit is adapted for receiving an input voltage from at least one voltage source. The input voltage is then converted into intermediate currents by the transconductor circuit. Thereafter, the rectifying circuit rectifies the intermediate currents current to produce a rectified current. Lastly, the amplification circuit amplifies the input voltage to produce the amplified voltage.
