The AD8436-EVALZ is an evaluation board for AD8436 device. The AD8436 is a new generation, translinear precision, low power, true RMS to DC converter that is loaded with options. It computes a precise dc equivalent of the RMS value ac waveforms, including complex patterns such as those generated by switch mode power supplies and triacs. The AD8436 evaluation board is fully assembled, tested and ready to use after the power and signal sources are connected. The AD8436-EVALZ offers many options, without sacrificing simplicity. The board is tested and shipped with a 10µF averaging capacitor (CAVG), 3.3µF low pass filter capacitor (C8) and a 0.1µF (COPT) capacitor to optimise crest factor performance.
