Introduction
The LTC1966 is a precision, micropower, true RMS to DC converter that utilizes an innovative patented ΔΣ computational technique.1 The internal delta-sigma circuitry of the LTC1966 makes it simpler to use, more accurate, lower power and dramatically more flexible than conventional log-antilog RMS to DC converters. Unlike previously available RMS to DC converters, the superior linearity of the LTC1966 allows hassle-free ...
