AD536A
FREQUENCY RESPONSE
The AD536A utilizes a logarithmic circuit in performing the
implicit rms computation. As with any log circuit, bandwidth
is proportional to signal level. The solid lines in the graph of
Figure 18 represent the frequency response of the AD536A at
input levels from 10 mV rms to 7 V rms. The dashed lines indicate
the upper frequency limits for 1%, 10%, and ±3 dB of reading
additional error. For example, note that a 1 V rms signal produces
less than 1% of reading additional error up to 120 kHz. A 10 mV
signal can be measured with 1% of reading additional error
(100 μV) up to only 5 kHz.
AC MEASUREMENT ACCURACY AND CREST
FACTOR
Crest factor is often overlooked when determining the accuracy
of an ac measurement. The definition of crest factor is the ratio
of the peak signal amplitude to the rms value of the signal
(CF = V
triangle waves, have relatively low crest factors (<2). Waveforms
that resemble low duty cycle pulse trains, such as those occurring
in switching power supplies and SCR circuits, have high crest
factors. For example, a rectangular pulse train with a 1% duty
cycle has a crest factor of 10 (CF = 1√n).

Figure 19 illustrates a curve of reading error for the AD536A for
a 1 V rms input signal with crest factors from 1 to 11. A rectan-
gular pulse train (pulse width = 100 μs) was used for this test
because it is the worst-case waveform for rms measurement (all
of the energy is contained in the peaks). The duty cycle and
peak amplitude were varied to produce crest factors from 1 to
11 while maintaining a constant 1 V rms input amplitude.
