Problems 113

• “Large-signal operation” occurs when a circuit or device experiences arbitrarily large


voltage or current excursions. The exponential, constant-voltage, or ideal diode mod-
els are used in this case.
• If the changes in voltages and currents are sufficiently small, then nonlinear devices
and circuits can be approximated by linear couterparts, greatly simplifying the anal-
ysis. This is called “small-signal operation.”
• The small-signal model of a diode consists of an “incremental resistance” given by
VT /ID .
• Diodes find application in many circuits, including rectifiers, limiting circuits, voltage
doublers, and level shifters.
• Half-wave rectifiers pass the positive (negative) half cycles of the input wave-
from and block the negative (positive) half cycles. If followed by a capaci-
tor, a rectifier can produce a dc level nearly equal to the peak of the input
swing.
• A half-wave rectifier with a smoothing capacitor of value C 1 and load resistor RL
exhibits an output ripple equal to (VP − VD,on )/(RLC 1 fin ).
• Full-wave rectifiers convert both positive and negative input cycles to the
same polarity at the output. If followed by a smoothing capacitor and a load
resistor, these rectifiers exhibit an output ripple given by 0.5(VP − 2VD,on )/
(RLC 1 fin ).
• Diodes can operate as limiting devices, i.e., limit the output swing even if the input
swing continues to increase.
