Positive Clipper:

  • A positive clipper circuit is used to clip off the positive part of the input signal voltage above a certain level while allowing the rest of the waveform to pass through unchanged.
  • It generally consists of a diode and a resistor. The diode is connected in series with the input signal, and the resistor is usually connected in parallel with the diode.
  • When the input signal is greater than the forward voltage of the diode, the diode conducts and clips the signal at that voltage level.
  • If the input signal is less than the forward voltage of the diode, the diode remains off, and the signal passes through unchanged.
  • This type of circuit is useful in waveform shaping, signal conditioning, and protecting circuits from voltage spikes.
