Abstract

A first and second hybrid envelope detector and full-wave rectifier is provided. The first hybrid envelope detector and full-wave rectifier includes a first P-channel Field Effect Transistor (PFET); a second PFET; a first N-channel Field Effect Transistor (NFET); a second NFET; a third NFET; a fourth NFET; a fifth NFET; a controller; a variable transistor; and a variable capacitor. The second hybrid envelope detector and full-wave rectifier includes a first N-channel Field Effect Transistor (NFET); a second NFET; a first P-channel Field Effect Transistor (PFET); a second PFET; a third PFET; a fourth PFET; a fifth PFET; a controller; a variable transistor; and a variable capacitor.
