Experiment 5: To Develop Understanding of Clipper circuit and development of clipper using diode.
OBJECTIVES:
1. To become familiar with clipper circuit.
2. To understand howto use diode for clipper circuit..
Introduction
In this report, we are focusing on one of the important applications of Diodes. i.e., clippers. An
electronic circuit is said to be a clipping circuit if it removes part of the input signal based on the
requirement. It is also known as a clipper, in short. A wave shaping circuit is said to be a clipper if it
performs one of the following three operations.
Positive clipper
Negative clipper
Both
Task
Provide proteus and hardware circuit along with results for all above three cases.
Proteus circuits
Positive clipper
Negative clipper
Both
Hardware circuits
Positive clipper
Negative clipper
Both
Conclusion
In our lab we have learned the phenomenon of the clipper/limiter of a diode. In which we connect
the Vbias in series with diode and get desired clipped voltage as an output (of the input sin wave). We
performed positive clipper, negative clipper and both (positive, negative ).
