Greetings Physics Forums,
I'm reading up on Radio Circuits and studying for my General's Amateur Radio License and was learning about AM Demodulators.
I understand that in AM you can use a peak detector to get the modulated audio out however in SSB radio don't you have to double the signal so as to invert it to produce the AM and then demodulate it?
So seeing if the above is correct would it be possible to just input the SSB Signal into an Op-Amp in both the inverting and non-inverting inputs to end up with the AM signal?
Thanks for everyone's time, I appreciate it! :)
Respectfully,
Voltux
