PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD736 is a low power, precision, monolithic true
rms-to-dc converter. It is laser trimmed to provide a maximum
error of – 0.3 mV – 0.3% of reading with sine-wave inputs. Fur-
thermore, it maintains high accuracy while measuring a wide
range of input waveforms, including variable duty cycle pulses
and triac (phase) controlled sine waves. The low cost and small
physical size of this converter make it suitable for upgrading the
performance of non-rms “precision rectifiers” in many applica-
tions. Compared to these circuits, the AD736 offers higher ac-
curacy at equal or lower cost.
The AD736 can compute the rms value of both ac and dc input
voltages. It can also be operated ac coupled by adding one ex-
ternal capacitor. In this mode, the AD736 can resolve input sig-
nal levels of 100 m V rms or less, despite variations in
temperature or supply voltage. High accuracy is also maintained
for input waveforms with crest factors of 1 to 3. In addition,
crest factors as high as 5 can be measured (while introducing
only 2.5% additional error) at the 200 mV full-scale input level.
The AD736 has its own output buffer amplifier, thereby provid-
ing a great deal of design flexibility. Requiring only 200 m A of
power supply current, the AD736 is optimized for use in por-
table multimeters and other battery powered applications.
The AD736 allows the choice of two signal input terminals: a
high impedance (1012 W
with high Z input attenuators and a low impedance (8 kW
) FET input which will directly interface
) input
FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
which allows the measurement of 300 mV input levels, while
operating from the minimum power supply voltage of +2.8 V,
–3.2 V. The two inputs may be used either singly or differentially.
The AD736 achieves a 1% of reading error bandwidth exceeding
10 kHz for input amplitudes from 20 mV rms to 200 mV rms
while consuming only 1 mW.
The AD736 is available in four performance grades. The
AD736J and AD736K grades are rated over the commercial tem-
perature range of 0 C to +70 C. The AD736A and AD736B
grades are rated over the industrial temperature range of –40 C
to +85 C.
The AD736 is available in three low-cost, 8-pin packages: plastic
mini-DIP, plastic SO and hermetic cerdip.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
1. The AD736 is capable of computing the average rectified
value, absolute value or true rms value of various input
signals.
2. Only one external component, an averaging capacitor, is
required for the AD736 to perform true rms measurement.
3. The low power consumption of 1 mW makes the AD736
suitable for many battery powered applications.
4. A high input impedance of 1012 W
eliminates the need for an
external buffer when interfacing with input attenuators.
5. A low impedance input is available for those applications
requiring up to 300 mV rms input signal operating from low
power supply voltages.

CALCULATING SETTLING TIME USING FIGURE 14
The graph of Figure 14 may be used to closely approximate the
time required for the AD736 to settle when its input level is re-
duced in amplitude. The net time required for the rms converter
to settle will be the difference between two times extracted from
the graph – the initial time minus the final settling time. As an
example, consider the following conditions: a 33 m F averaging
capacitor, an initial rms input level of 100 mV and a final (re-
duced) input level of 1 mV. From Figure 14, the initial settling
time (where the 100 mV line intersects the 33 m F line) is around
80 ms.
The settling time corresponding to the new or final input level
of 1 mV is approximately 8 seconds. Therefore, the net time for
the circuit to settle to its new value will be 8 seconds minus
80 ms which is 7.92 seconds. Note that, because of the smooth
decay characteristic inherent with a capacitor/diode combina-
tion, this is the total settling time to the final value (i.e., not the
settling time to 1%, 0.1%, etc., of final value). Also, this graph
provides the worst case settling time, since the AD736 will settle
very quickly with increasing input levels.

AD736
TYPES OF AC MEASUREMENT
The AD736 is capable of measuring ac signals by operating as
either an average responding or a true rms-to-dc converter. As
its name implies, an average responding converter computes the
average absolute value of an ac (or ac and dc) voltage or current
by full wave rectifying and low-pass filtering the input signal;
this will approximate the average. The resulting output, a dc
“average” level, is then scaled by adding (or reducing) gain; this
scale factor converts the dc average reading to an rms equivalent
value for the waveform being measured. For example, the aver-
age absolute value of a sine-wave voltage is 0.636 that of VPEAK;
the corresponding rms value is 0.707 times VPEAK. Therefore,
for sine-wave voltages, the required scale factor is 1.11 (0.707
divided by 0.636).
In contrast to measuring the “average” value, true rms measure-
ment is a “universal language” among waveforms, allowing the
magnitudes of all types of voltage (or current) waveforms to be
compared to one another and to dc. RMS is a direct measure of
the power or heating value of an ac voltage compared to that of
dc: an ac signal of 1 volt rms will produce the same amount of
heat in a resistor as a 1 volt dc signal.
Mathematically, the rms value of a voltage is defined (using a
simplified equation) as:
V rms = Avg.(V 2 )
This involves squaring the signal, taking the average, and then
obtaining the square root. True rms converters are “smart recti-
fiers”: they provide an accurate rms reading regardless of the
type of waveform being measured. However, average responding
converters can exhibit very high errors when their input signals
deviate from their precalibrated waveform; the magnitude of the
error will depend upon the type of waveform being measured.
As an example, if an average responding converter is calibrated
to measure the rms value of sine-wave voltages, and then is used
to measure either symmetrical square waves or dc voltages, the
converter will have a computational error 11% (of reading)
higher than the true rms value (see Table I).
AD736 THEORY OF OPERATION
As shown by Figure 16, the AD736 has five functional subsec-
tions: input amplifier, full-wave rectifier, rms core, output am-
plifier and bias sections. The FET input amplifier allows
both a high impedance, buffered input (Pin 2) or a low imped-
ance, wide-dynamic-range input (Pin 1). The high impedance
input, with its low input bias current, is well suited for use with
high impedance input attenuators.
The output of the input amplifier drives a full wave precision
rectifier, which in turn, drives the rms core. It is in the core that
the essential rms operations of squaring, averaging and square
rooting are performed, using an external averaging capacitor,
CAV. Without CAV, the rectified input signal travels through the
core unprocessed, as is done with the average responding con-
nection (Figure 17).
A final subsection, an output amplifier, buffers the output from
the core and also allows optional low-pass filtering to be per-
formed via external capacitor, CF, connected across the feed-
back path of the amplifier. In the average responding
connection, this is where all of the averaging is carried out. In
the rms circuit, this additional filtering stage helps reduce any
output ripple which was not removed by the averaging capaci-
tor, CAV.

RMS MEASUREMENT – CHOOSING THE OPTIMUM
VALUE FOR CAV
Since the external averaging capacitor, CAV, “holds” the recti-
fied input signal during rms computation, its value directly af-
fects the accuracy of the rms measurement, especially at low
frequencies. Furthermore, because the averaging capacitor ap-
pears across a diode in the rms core, the averaging time constant
will increase exponentially as the input signal is reduced. This
means that as the input level decreases, errors due to nonideal
averaging will reduce while the time it takes for the circuit to
settle to the new rms level will increase. Therefore, lower input
levels allow the circuit to perform better (due to increased aver-
aging) but increase the waiting time between measurements.
Obviously, when selecting CAV, a trade-off between computa-
tional accuracy and settling time is required.
AD736
As shown, the dc error is the difference between the average of
the output signal (when all the ripple in the output has been
removed by external filtering) and the ideal dc output. The dc
error component is therefore set solely by the value of averaging
capacitor used-no amount of post filtering (i.e., using a very
large CF) will allow the output voltage to equal its ideal value.
The ac error component, an output ripple, may be easily re-
moved by using a large enough post filtering capacitor, CF.
In most cases, the combined magnitudes of both the dc and ac
error components need to be considered when selecting appro-
priate values for capacitors CAV and CF. This combined error,
representing the maximum uncertainty of the measurement is
termed the “averaging error” and is equal to the peak value of
the output ripple plus the dc error.
As the input frequency increases, both error components de-
crease rapidly: if the input frequency doubles, the dc error and
ripple reduce to 1/4 and 1/2 their original values, respectively,
and rapidly become insignificant.
AC MEASUREMENT ACCURACY AND CREST FACTOR
The crest factor of the input waveform is often overlooked when
determining the accuracy of an ac measurement. Crest factor is
defined as the ratio of the peak signal amplitude to the rms am-
plitude (C.F. = VPEAK/V rms). Many common waveforms, such
as sine and triangle waves, have relatively low crest factors (£ 2).
Other waveforms, such as low duty cycle pulse trains and SCR
waveforms, have high crest factors. These types of waveforms
require a long averaging time constant (to average out the long
time periods between pulses). Figure 6 shows the additional
error vs. crest factor of the AD736 for various values of CAV.

quency rolloff. This frequency, FL, is equal to:
FL =
2p (8,000)(TheValue of CC in Farads )
1
Note that at FL, the amplitude error will be approximately
–30% (–3 dB) of reading. To reduce this error to 0.5% of read-
ing, choose a value of CC that sets FL at one tenth the lowest
frequency to be measured.
In addition, if the input voltage has more than 100 mV of dc
offset, than the ac coupling network shown in Figure 21 should
be used in addition to capacitor CC.
