The charging capacitor 180 has a connecting end 181 electrically connected to the charging transistor 170 and the comparator 150. The negative terminal 152 has a clock signal terminal 191, a signal output terminal 192 and a reset terminal 193. The clock signal terminal 191 is electrically connected to the first output end of the comparator 150. 153, the first switch SW1 is electrically connected to the second output end 133 of the amplifier 130, the second switch SW2 is electrically connected to the first switch SW1, the first negative end 152 of the comparator 150, and the The first reset signal terminal T1 is electrically connected to the first switch SW1 and the second switch SW2.
Referring to FIG. 1 again, the high-precision voltage peak detector 100 further has a bias adjustment terminal B electrically connected to the voltage signal input end of the first analog buffer 110. The biasing terminal B is configured to pull up the DC potential of the voltage signal input terminal 111. The high-precision voltage peak detector 100 further includes a first resistor R1 and a second resistor R2. The amplifier 130 has a second positive terminal 131, a second negative terminal 132, and a second output terminal 133. The first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 are electrically connected to the second negative terminal 132. The low-pass filter 120 is electrically connected to the second positive terminal 131, and the other end of the second resistor R2 is electrically connected to the first switch SW1, the second output end 133 of the amplifier 130, and the second The analog buffer 140, in addition, the high-precision voltage peak detector 100 further has a gate G, the gate G has a second reset signal terminal T2, and the gate G is electrically connected to the weight The terminal 193 and the first reset signal terminal T1, in addition, the high-accuracy voltage peak detector 100 further has a third SW3, the third switch SW3 is electrically connected to the first output end 153 of the comparator 150, the OR gate G and the reset end 193 of the flip-flop 190, the first reset signal end T1 The function is to zero the node in the circuit by the second switch SW2 and the third switch SW3 to avoid generating an initial floating value.

The charging capacitor 180 is charged by the voltage source V _DD in the high-precision voltage peak detector 100, and the signal peak of the connecting end 181 is updated and accessed as the signal peak of another sensing signal.
The present invention enables the input signal to be close to the DC characteristic by the signal processing of the first analog buffer 110 and the low pass filter 120, thereby effectively reducing the specification requirements of the amplifier 130 and the comparator 150. The circuit design of the amplifier 130, the flip-flop 190, the charging transistor 170 and the charging capacitor 180 enables the second peak terminal 161 to effectively follow the signal peak of the voltage signal input terminal 111. When the signal output terminal 111 is at a high potential, the second peak end 161 will follow the peak of the first peak end 141, and then, when the potential of the first peak end 141 decreases, the first positive end of the comparator 150 The 151 series outputs a low potential because the potential is smaller than the first negative terminal 152. At this time, the second peak end 161 maintains the peak of the original access and does not follow the potential of the first peak terminal 141.
