Talk:Clipper (electronics)

message: Can a clipper operate without a diode of some sort? Careful how you answer this one!--Light current 17:42, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Necessity for diode in clippers

message: The result was not to merge clamper (electronics) into clipper (electronics).
I suggest merging clamper (electronics) into clipper (electronics).
Some sources draw a distinction between the two.
But I they are so closely related that a single article describing both of them, and the subtle distinction between them, would be better than 2 separate article, each of which re-iterate the subtle distinction between them.

message: I have removed the claim in the article that square waves are easier to analyse in clipper circuits.  I don't see in what way, any analysis I can think of gives either trivial or useless results.  The clipping level is the same for any waveform and is determined by the circuit.  The phase onset of clipping is certainly easy to calculate for a square wave - it is clipping at all points of the waveform - but that is hardly telling us anything useful.  The most complex thing one might want to calculate for a clipper is to determine the harmonic distortion by Fourier analysis.  Well a clipped square wave will still be a square wave so the relative harmonic content will not have changed.  We thus come to the conclusion by square wave analysis that a clipper introduces no distortion and is, in fact, an attenuator. SpinningSpark 09:59, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

The term band is a legal and administrative term in Canada and is uncontroversial. Maybe the best thing is to create an article on something like First Nations government in Canada.

message: "Between 1891 and 1939, "The Black Cats", as they are known – in addition to their six league titles – finished in the bottom half of the league only ten times, and finished in the top seven 28 times. Since World War II, their league performances have been considerably poorer, only finishing in the top half nine times (1947, 1949, 1950, 1953, 1955, 1956, 2000, 2001 and 2011), and only reaching the top seven four times (1950, 1955, 2000 and 2001). Furthermore, they have been relegated eleven times, and just over half of this period has been spent in the top flight (41 out of 76 seasons); of the 35 seasons in which they were outside the top flight, five have been spent in the third tier."

Writing for the Atlantic, Ta-Nehisi Coates uses it as a metaphor for the Confederacy and their adherence to racial principles.  "Thus in 1861, when the Civil War began, the Union did not face a peaceful Southern society wanting to be left alone. It faced an an aggressive power, a Genosha, an entire society based on the bondage of a third of its residents, with dreams of expanding its fields of the bondage further South."  The use of it, and especially the lack of explanation in a non-comic publication, was quite startling. Would this be worth noting on the page as evidence of its cultural penetration? --2602:306:CFEA:E360:342B:89EB:2B1B:C389 (talk) 09:08, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
