Question:

A circuit that removes all the positive parts of the input signal is a

Show Hint

Wave Shaping Circuits. Clippers limit amplitude. Clampers shift DC level. Positive clipper removes signal portions above a reference level. Negative clipper removes portions below a reference level.

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

- Clippers are circuits that limit or "clip" the voltage swing of a signal, removing parts above or below a certain reference level
A circuit removing positive parts is a positive clipper
- Clampers add a DC offset to a signal, shifting its baseline
- Voltage doublers are rectifier circuits that increase DC voltage
Since the circuit removes the positive portions of the signal, it is performing positive clipping
