Clamping using PN junction diodeΒΆ

Objective

Demostrate clamping of an AC signal at different levels, using a PN junction diode

Procedure

  • Make connections and observe the output
  • Change PV1 and note the difference in the output

Discussion

The clamping level is decided by the applied DC voltage and the diode drop.
