The PIV of a diode is considered only when it is used as a rectifier?

A: Absolutely not. Any application of a design will have a minimum PIV for the circuit


How do you derive PIV of Bridge rectifier?

A: The input peak value is the guide for PIV


What PIV rating is required for the diodes in a bridge rectifier that produces an average output voltage of 50 V?

Its 50-0.7=49.3V Using this Formula : PIV Rating = Vout - 0.7V


What should be the PIV rating of the diodes in the full wave rectifire?

A: The same as a half wave rectifier RMS x1.41


What is PIV value of a half wave rectifier?

A: It realy does not matter half or full wave. the PIV will be 1.41 the RMS input example 100v ac will have a requirement of PIV of 141 volts on the rectifiers.


What is the purpose of the transformer in the half-wave rectifier circuit?

what is the function of transformer in the half wave rectifier circuit


What has the greater current in the diodes bridge rectifier circuit or full-wave rectifier circuit?

They both have the same current.


What are advantages of bridge rectifier?

A bridge rectifier will rectify both halves of a sine wave and give "continuous output" through 360 degrees of the input. Oh, and you don't need a center-tapped transformer to use it.


Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier for low voltage applications?

there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.


What is a piv drive?

Piv drive is piv drive


What is the effect of an RL circuit in half wave rectifier?

The effect of an RL circuit in half wave rectifier is that the voltage output wave forms for current and voltage will be modified .


What is the opposite of a rectifier?

The electronic circuit that does the opposite function of a rectifier is called an inverter. It converts any DC signal to AC.
