Solution
The correct option is B Clamp Diodes
Comparator is a circuit which performs comparison between the signal voltage on one input of Op-amp with reference voltage on another input. The arrangement of diodes in comparator circuit is in such a way that they play a cardinal role in protecting Op-amp from getting damage due to excess of input voltage.
These diodes intentionally undergoes clamping of difference input voltage to 0.7 or -0.7 volts. However, these diodes are also called as 'Clamp Diodes'.
