Circuit Description

The Peak Detector circuit is viral.
It is featured in the Half Bridge Rectifier, Boost Converter, Flyback Converter, Villard Cascade, Demodulator, and many other circuits.
This circuit takes the peak value of an AC signal and converts it into a positive or negative DC value depending on the direction of the diode. Simply put, it will give you the max or min DC value of an alternating signal.
If you have Multisim Premium you can try replacing the generic diode with 1N4007, UF4007, or similar diodes if you're working with 1amp or less.
