Question:
If the input to a comparator is a sine wave, the output is
If the input to a comparator is a sine wave, the output is
Show Hint
Remember that comparators turn a continuous input signal into a square or rectangular wave, depending on the input conditions.

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
A comparator is a device that compares two voltages and outputs a signal based on the comparison. When a sine wave is applied to a comparator, the output switches between high and low states, creating a rectangular waveform. Thus, the output of a comparator with a sine wave input is a rectangular wave. Therefore, the correct answer is option (3).
