Emitter Coupled Clipper Circuit: An emitter coupled clipper using two transistors is shown in Fig. 30.71. It is a two level clipper in which the input is applied to the…
What is Clipper Circuit? - Definition and Classification Clipper Circuit is one which controls the shape of the waveform by removing or "clipping" off an unwanted portion. A half-wave rectifier…
What is Current Conveyors (CCs)? Current conveyors (CCs) were first introduced by Smith and Sedra and have been used in a variety of electronic applications. The CC is a three-port…
OTA in Sample and Hold Circuits: The OTA can be used in sample and hold circuits, as shown in Fig. 41.15. To sample and hold the input signal the control…
What is Dual Power Supply? -Circuit Diagram and its Workings? Many discrete and ICs need bipolar (dual power supply or ± V) supplies. This can be easily accomplished with two…
What is Current Limiting Protection? The circuit arrangement for IC 723 as low voltage or high voltage regulator has no protection. If short circuiting takes place (when load demands more…
LM340 Series Voltage Regulator: This LM340 Series Voltage Regulator is typical of the three-terminal voltage regulators. The block diagram is shown in Fig. 43.27. The built-in reference voltage Vref drives…
Three Terminal IC Voltage Regulators - Block Diagram: The latest generation of IC voltage regulators has devices with only three pins: one for the unregulated input voltage, one for the…
