it is used in voltage multipliers.
main difference is that clamper circuit contains a caoacitor while clipper not clipper cut off the specific portion of wave
clipper circuit is used to remove some part of wave form(positive part,negative part or peak)... clamper circuit is used to shift the wave form (up or down) ....
A clamper is an electronic circuit that prevents a signal from exceeding a certain defined magnitude by shifting its DC value. The clamper does not restrict the peak-to-peak excursion of the signal, but moves it up or down by a fixed value
clamper
A negative clamper circuit is considered. It shifts original input signal in a downward direction.While positive input is applied, diode is forward biased. The output voltage is Vo which is equal barrier potential of the diode. The capacitor is charged to V-Vo.When negative input cycle, diode does not conduct because it is reverse biased and the capacitor can not discharge very much because time constant (RC) choosen is high. Now output is sum of input voltage and capacitor voltage and it is equal to -(2V - Vo). Now peak to peak output voltage is difference of output voltages when positive and negative half cycles and it is equal to V-(-(2V - Vo)) or 2V.In negative clamper, input signal is pushed downward and positive peak of the output signal coincides with zero level.In positive clamper circuit, unlike in negative clamper circuit, diode is connected reversely.There is no change in connection of capacitor. But resistor is connected after diode. Positive clamping circuit shifts a input signal in upward direction. The output of this circuit shows that negative peak of signal coincides with zero level.
use a clamper and try not to use clipper..

series other name current series and parallel is voltage
A prong is a clamper to clamp things.

possitive clamper is clip on positive side while negetivr clamper clip towords negetive side
