Semiconductor Diode NAT Level - 2 - Question 8

A half-wave rectifier employs a transformer with turn ratio n1 : n= 12 : 1. If primary coil is connected to the power mains 220V, 50Hz. If the diode resistance in forward bias is negligible, what is the peak inverse voltage (in Volts) of the diode?


Detailed Solution for Semiconductor Diode NAT Level - 2 - Question 8

The turn ratio of transform ation is 12:1. So if primary coil is connected to power mains o f 220V , then potential of secondary coil is Volts. In a half-wave rectifier,is the maximum voltage appearing across the transformer secondary coil. Now. peak inverse voltage, for half wave rectifier in given as V0

= 25.9V
The correct answer is: 25 .9

Semiconductor Diode NAT Level - 2 - Question 9

A 10V zener diode working as a voltage regulator operates from a source that varies from 5 V to 15V, the series resistance is 0.1kΩ and the load draws a current that varies from 0 to 20mA. The power dissipation in the zener diode under worst case (in Watts) is?


Detailed Solution for Semiconductor Diode NAT Level - 2 - Question 9


 For maximum power dissipation, current through zener diode should be maximum which is maximum when total current in the circuit is maximum i.e. Vs = 15V.


The correct answer is: 0.5
