Q

If the peak voltage on a center tapped full wave rectifier circuit is 5v and diode cut in voltage is 0.7. The peak inverse voltage on diode is_______________

A

For a rectifier, PIV = 2Vm – Vd = 10 – 0.7= 9.3V.

Q

For a half wave or full wave rectifier the peak inverse voltage of the rectifier is always

A

The peak input voltage is smaller than the input voltage due to the presence of diodes. A single diode reduces the output voltage by approximately 0.7V.

Q

In a bridge full wave rectifier, the input sine wave is 100pi. The output ripple frequency will be:

A

ω = 100π ⇒ 2πf = 100π ⇒ f = 50Hz
In full wave rectification
Pulse frequency (ripple frequency) = 2 × Frequency of source = 2 × 50Hz = 100Hz
