In a full-wave rectifier using two ideal diodes,Vdc & Vm are the dc & peak values of the voltage respectively across a resistive load. If PIV is the peak inverse voltage of the diode, then the appropriate relationships for this rectifier is________?
AVdc = 2Vm/π, PIV=2vm
BVdc = Vm/π, PIV=Vm
CVdc = Vm/π, PIV=2Vm
DVdc = 2Vm/π, PIV=Vm
Correct answer
A. Vdc = 2Vm/π, PIV=2vm
Explanation
The correct answer is Vdc = 2Vm/π, PIV=2vm.
