The invention provides an
alternating current signal effective value measuring device which comprises an absolute value conversion circuit, a high-frequency
triangular wave generation circuit, a PWM
signal modulation circuit, a front-end integral circuit, a rear-end integral circuit, a reset circuit, a sampling maintaining circuit, a dividing circuit, a root circuit and a timing circuit. According to the
alternating current signal effective value measuring device, the absolute value | v(t) / of signals to be tested v(t) and single-polarity symmetric high-frequency
triangular wave signal v(t) are subjected to modulation, and high-frequency
PWM signals far higher than the v(t) frequency are obtained; due to the fact that v(t) are continuous signals, and vc(t) frequency is far higher than v(t), the area of the
PWM signals in each cycle is equal to the area formed by the| v(t) / in the corresponding PWM signal cycle; meanwhile, v(t)<2> is also a continuous function, so that the effective value of v(t) can be obtained by calculating the square and evolution of the
PWM signals in the cycle T of v(t). According to the
alternating current signal effective value measuring device, the alternating signals v(t) for calculating the effective value are all alternating cycle signals, namely alternating
current cycle signals containing
direct current components and alternating current components, so that the alternating current signal effective value measuring device can effectively solve the problem that the signal to be tested contains
direct current components and
harmonic waves and is wider in application range.
