5.0 Wave Shaping Circuits

Wave shaping circuits alter the shape of an applied waveform by attenuating parts of it or shifting its DC level.

5.1 Clippers

A clipper removes a part of the input signal above or below a certain reference value, reducing the peak-to-peak amplitude.

Positive Clipper: Clips the positive portion of the input signal. The output follows the input when V_i < V_{ref} and is clamped to V_{ref} when V_i > V_{ref}.
Negative Clipper: Clips the negative portion of the input signal. The output follows the input when V_i > V_{ref} and is clamped to V_{ref} when V_i < V_{ref}.

5.2 Clampers

A clamper shifts the entire input signal vertically by a DC value, without changing its peak-to-peak amplitude.

Positive Clamper: Shifts the input waveform vertically upward by a positive DC reference voltage.
Negative Clamper: Shifts the input waveform vertically downward by a negative DC reference voltage.
