Provides Signal “T rack & Hold” or
“Track & P eak Hold” Capability
MODEL
DESCRIPTION
The AP4570 offers two modes of operation - Track & Hold and
Track & Peak-Hold. In “Track & Hold” operation the output tracks
the input signal. When an external contact is closed, the input level

is “saved” and its corresponding output signal is held indefinitely
until the contact is opened. Releasing the hold switch (pins 8 and
11) allows the output to again follow the input. The “Track & PeakHold” mode is similar to “Track & Hold” operation except upon
contact closure (pins 8 and 11) the highest input is “saved” and the
corresponding output is held until a higher signal level occurs.
APPLICATION
Model AP4570 is useful in capturing DC-input signals to be held
for further processing or signal-conditioning. Typical applications
include monitoring peak electrical or energy demands, capturing
process conditions such as flow rates, equipment protection and
taring to factor out unwanted dead weight.

CALIBRATION
Top-accessed screwdriver adjustments provide typical ±10% zero
and span adjustability. Calibration is referred to input in that
adjustments are to correct for input/sensor variations. Zero is
adjusted for the specified minimum output with the input at the
desired minimum. Span is adjusted for the specified maximum
output with the input at the desired maximum. Repeat adjustments
for maximum accuracy.
