From time to time I see circuits where a diode is put in parallel with a polarized capacitor (electrolytic). I am talking about signal carrying circuits, not power supplies.
I understand that the diode is there to clamp any reverse biasing of the capacitor but would it not have a detrimental effect on the signal?
Anyone here who has looked into this?
