Clippers
² Clippers or diode limiting is a diode network that have the ability to “clip” off a portion on the i/p signal without distorting the remaining part of the alternating waveform.
² Clippers are used to eliminate amplitude noise or to
fabricate new waveforms from an existing signal.
² 2 general of clippers: a) Series clippers b) Parallel clippers

The diode “clips” any voltage that does not put it in forward bias. That would be a reverse biasing polarity and a voltage less than 0.7V for a silicon diode.

By taking the output across the diode, the output is now the voltage when the diode is not conducting. A DC source can also be added to change the diode’s required forward bias voltage.

Clampers
² The clamping network is to “clamp” a signal to a different dc level. Also known as dc restorers. The clamping cct is often used in TV receivers as a dc restorer.
² The network consists of: a) Capacitor b) Diode c) Resistive element d) Independent dc supply (option)
² The magnitude of R and C must be chosen such that the time constant
² τ = RC is large enough to ensure that the voltage across the capacitor does not discharge significantly during the interval the diode is nonconducting.
² Our analysis basis that all capacitor is fully charge and discharge in 5 time constant.

HalfwavevoltageDoubler
The circuit for a half wave voltage doubler. During the positive half cycle of the secondary voltage diode D1 conducts and D2 is cut off. Now capacitor C1 charges to the peak rectified voltage Vm, with polarity shown in the figure. During the negative half cycle, the secondary voltage comes in series with voltage across the capacitor C1.
HalfwavevoltageDoubler
Thus C2 will try to charge towards 2Vm(Vm of the input and Vm of the capacitor C1. After few cycles the voltage across the capacitor C2 will be equal to 2Vm Since diode D2 acts as a short during the negative half-cycle (and diode D1 is open), we can sum the voltages around the outside loop. i.e;
−𝑉𝑚 − 𝑉𝐶1−𝑉𝐶2=0 (or) −𝑉𝑚 − 𝑉𝑚 −𝑉𝐶2=0from which, 𝑉𝐶2=2𝑉𝑚
In the circuit capacitor C1 will discharge in the negative half cycle. Again in the positive half cycle, it starts charging. Thus the half wave voltage doubler supplies the voltage to the load in one half cycles. Therefore regulation of the half wave voltage doubler is poor.
² Another voltage doubler circuit called full wave voltage doubler isshowninfig.
² During the posiDve half cycle of the secondary voltage diode D1conducts, charging the capacitor the capacitor C1to the peak voltageVm.
² AtthisDmediodeD2isnon-conducDng.
² During negaDve half cycle diode D2conducts, charging capacitor C2toVm,withpolarityasmarked,whilediodeD2isnon-conducDng.
² SincebothcapacitorsC1andC2areinseries,thefinaloutputvoltageisapproximately2Vm.
² This circuit is called full wave voltage doubler because one of theoutput capacitor is being charged during each half cycle of the inputvoltage

DisadvantagesofBridgeRecKfier
² It requires four diodes, two of which conduct inalternatehalfcycles.Thiscreatesatotalvoltagedropof1.4V(ifSidiodesareused).
² Therefore this creates a problem if low dc voltage isrequired.
