audioguru Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Hi Walid,You can make a full-wave rectifier with diodes which produces double the frequency.Rectifiers cause high distortion which is full of high harmonics.A diode mixer can add and subtract two frequencies.You can make your own examples.Look at the 100Hz hum which is the ripple from a 50Hz full-wave rectifier.Feed a sine-wave through a diode and see on a 'scope and hear on an amplified speaker the high harmonics.Look at the mixer diode in a radio. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
