For the half wave rectifier shown the secondary voltage VS

For the half wave rectifier shown, the secondary voltage V_S = 22V rms. If the diode on voltage V_D = 1V. what is the maximum output voltage, V_o(pk)? Enter your answer in V.

Solution

Ans) Vs =22 V RMS

Vsp=22 *sqrt(2) =31.113 V (Peak)

   Vo(pk)=Vsp-V_D=31.113-1=30.113 V

   Vo(pk)=30.113 V
