    This experiment aims to construct and analyze unbiased and biased positive and negative clippers. Key components include a function generator, oscilloscope, rectifier diode, and resistor. There are two types of clippers - unbiased and biased. Unbiased clippers clip signals up to 0.7V without added DC voltage, while biased clippers use an added battery to clip higher voltages by supporting or opposing the diode. The procedures connect various configurations of these components to observe clipping behavior on an oscilloscope.

    Experiment # 07

    Objective:
    To construct and analyze unbiased and biased positive and
    negative clippers.
    Apparatus:
    1. Function generator
    2. Oscilloscope
    3. Rectifier diode
    4. Resistor
    5. DC power supply

    Theory:
    Clipper is a device designed to prevent the output of a circuit from exceeding a predetermined
    voltage level without distorting the remaining part of the applied waveform.

    There are two types parallel and series clippers. Further it is classified clippers into unbiased
    and other is biased and into positive clipper and negative clipper.

    Unbiased clippers:

    The clipper circuit in which DC battery is not added.

    The unbiased clipper is used to clip a circuit of voltage level up to 0.7V. After clipping the
    clipped portion voltage is regained with amplification of remaining portion.

    Biased clippers:
    The clipper circuit in which DC battery is added which either support or
    opposes the diode.
    Biased clipper is used to clip the input voltage greater than 0.7V.

    Procedure:
    1. Connect the positive terminal of function generator to the anode of diode and
    cathode to resistor terminal another terminal of resistor to negative of function
    generator (negative clipper).
    2. Connect oscilloscope at function generator and another channel of oscilloscope
    parallel to resistor.
    3. On oscilloscope bring both channel reference at a single point, observe and take a
    picture.
    4. Repeat all procedure by changing connection of diode (positive clipper).
    5. For biasing clipper add a battery in series with diode positive terminal to anode
    and negative terminal to input ac and observe on oscilloscope.
    6. Now repeat procedure 5 by reversing the battery terminal.
    7. Now repeat procedure 5 and 6 by changing the terminal of the diode.
    8. Now connect diode parallel to diode and their parallel combination in series with
    a resistor diode and observe.
    9. Then reverse the diode connection and observe graph on oscilloscope.
    10. Repeat procedure 8 by adding a battery in series with diode such that positive
    terminal is connected to p type.
    11. Repeat procedure 10 by reversing the direction of battery.
    12. After that reverse the diode terminals observe graph on oscilloscope when battery
    support diode.
    13. Repeat above procedure when battery opposes the diode.
