-Refer to Figure 2. Assume the top diode is reversed. The circuit will
A)clip negative peaks below -8.0 V 
B)clip positive peaks above +8.0 V 
C)both A and B 
D)none of the above

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reversing the top diode will cause it to conduct during positive peaks, clipping them above +8.0 V.
