    Given below is a circuit diagram of an AM demodulator. For good demodulation of AM signal of carrier frequency\[f,\]the value of RC should be

    A)  \[RC=\frac{1}{f}\]                          

    B)  \[RC<\frac{1}{f}\]

    C)  \[RC\ge \frac{1}{f}\]                     

    D)         \[RC>>\frac{1}{f}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    From the modulated signal, we can demodulate or detect the modulating or message signal by using a diode and a suitable capacitor filter. The \[AM\] signal given to the input of the circuit appears at the output of the diode as a rectified wave. For good demodulation of \[AM\] signal the value of RC (which is a lime-constant) is chosen such that                 \[\frac{1}{f}<\,\,<RC\]      or     \[RC>\,\,>\frac{1}{f}\] where \[f\] is the frequency of the carrier signal.
