Details

The Clamping-Network is one that will "clamp" a signal to a different dc level. The network must have a capacitor, a diode and a resistive element, but it can also employ an independent dc supply to introduce an additional shift. The magnitude of R and C must be choosen so that $t=RC$ is large enough to ensure that the voltage across the capacitor does not discharge significantly during the interval diode is unconducting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.163.81.241 (talk • contribs) 14:13, 13 April 2008

I've added this information to the article. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 17:27, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Diagram

Can we get a circuit diagram and analysis on it? It would've helped me :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.152.181.80 (talk) 22:56, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

clamp curcuits

this is to ask why do we say that the capacitor should not discharge during the unconducting time of diode,and why should we set t=RC? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.163.147.195 (talk) 18:09, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
