Answer to Question #239829 in Electric Circuits for Samra

Question

For a half-wave rectifier having diode voltage VD and supply input of VI, the diode conducts for π – 2Θ, where Θ is given by

a)tan -1 VD/VI

b)tan-1 VD/VI – VI

c)sin-1 VD/VI

d)sin-1 VD/VI – VI

Answer 1

Solution :-

$\theta=sin^{-1}\frac{V_D}{V_i}$

Option (c) is correct option

Diode has does not conduct

V_D is grater than and equal V_i

Option (c) is correct option
