EXPERIMENT NO. 6
1.0 Title :
To build and test RC differentiator circuit and RC integrator circuit for sine wave, square wave and
triangular wave as an input.
• Wave shaping : It is a process of changing the waveform of sinusoidal input by use of linear or
non – linear network.
Wave Shaping
• Linear wave shaping Circuit : It is the circuit which makes use of only linear circuit elements like
inductor, capacitor and resistors such circuit is used to perform functions of differentiation and
integration.
• Non – linear wave shaping circuit: It is the circuit which make use of non – linear circuit elements
such as diode and transistors, these circuits are used to perform functions of amplitude limiting,
clipping and clamping.
• RC network is used for linear wave shaping of non – sinusoidal input like square wave to get
waveforms like triangular waveform and saw tooth waveform etc.
Output
Saw tooth
Waveform
• The time constant (t) of the RC network and the time period of the input signal (T) determines the
shape of the output waveform.
• If t < < T then circuit behaves as a differentiator.
