If the input to a differentiating circuit is a saw-tooth wave, then output will be _____________?

Correct answer: D. Rectangular

  • A. Square
  • B. Triangular
  • C. Sine
  • D. Rectangular

Explanation

The ramp portion of a sawtooth has an approximately constant slope, so differentiation gives a constant level; the rapid reset gives a sharp pulse. Together these form a rectangular waveform, rather than a triangular or sinusoidal one.
