    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    Nah, said in the first post it's a half wave rectifier.

    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    Okay, I cobbled together a dual 9V supply and nicked a dual supply op-amp from a previous project and it appears to have done the trick. I'm now just trying to get rid of that offset of 0.22v. I think it's to do with that my +ve rail is 9.24v wheras -ve rail is at 9.02v. Coupling caps on the...

    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    So even with a single supply op-amp and Vcc/2 as the non-inverting input, it still doesnt work with a sine wave that swings below 0V?

    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    I have since realised that due to the op-amp being single-power supply, I need Vcc+/2 at the non-inverting input. I've built that so 4.5V now enters the non-inverting input, but now I get the attached output waveform. I'm really not sure what is wrong here.

    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    Hey, if I've got the definition of 'swing' correct (was never given a direct definition), yes it does swing below 0V.

    Simple Precision Rectifier Circuit -- Stumped

    Alright, basically, I've built the following precision rectifier circuit but I can't discern the problem at all. I've attached the schematic, input signal and output signal. Of course, the output should be a typical half wave rectifier but I just can't work out why the output is like that, I...
