Clippers :
Clipping circuit is used to select for transmission that part of an arbitrary waveform
which lie above or below some reference level. Clipping circuit “clips” some portion of
the waveform. Clipping circuits are also referred to as voltage limiters. Clamping circuit
preserves shape of the waveform while clipping circuit does not preserve shape of
waveform. Clipping circuit uses some reference level. Waveform above or below this
reference level is clipped. Clipping circuits are also known as voltage limiter or
Advantages :
The main advantage of clippers is that they eliminate the unwanted noise present in
the amplitude of an ac signal.
Clippers can be classified into the following two types based on the clipping portion of
the input.
Positive Clipper
Negative Clipper
Apparatus Used :
1. Resistor (3.3K ohm).
2. Diode 1N4007.
3. Battery.
5. Proteus
Procedure :
1. In the circuit shown below sinusoidal voltage , resistor , diodes and batteries are
feed into the proteus and a clipper circuit is formed to limit the voltage.
2. With the help of Analogue Analysis tool both the input and output waveforms are
thoroughly analyzed.
