See all →- A full wave rectifier circuit with diodes (D_1) and (D_2) is shown in the figure. If input supply voltage V_in = 220(100π t) volt, then at t = 15 msec Answer: 1. D₁ is forward biased, D₂ is reverse biased or 2. D₁ is reverse biased, D₂ is forward biased Key idea: in a centre-tapped full-wav... 1
- A full wave rectifier circuit consists of two p-n junction diodes, a centre-tapped transformer, capacitor and a load resistance. Which of these components remove the ac ripple from the rectified output? Answer: 4. Capacitor The rectifier output is pulsating dc. A capacitor connected across the load charges at the peaks and discharges in the... 1
- In half wave rectification, if the input frequency is 60 Hz, then the output frequency would be : Answer: 4. 60 Hz A half-wave rectifier conducts only in one half of each ac cycle, so there is one output pulse per input cycle. Output freq... 1
