In a center-tapped full-wave rectifier, the peak inverse voltage (PIV) for each diode is equal to the peak output voltage. Therefore, when the peak output voltage is 100 V, the PIV for each diode is also 100 V. This is because each diode must withstand the full peak voltage when it is reverse-biased. Thus, each diode in this configuration experiences a PIV of 100 V.

Formula for peak inverse voltage?

piv:the maximum value of reverse voltage across a diode that occurs at the peak of the input cycle when the diode is reversed-biased.


How can capacitor smooth or reduce the ripple of the voltage produced by the rectifier?

when rectifier is on, the capacitor is almost transparent (it charges to the voltage provided from the rectifier) when rectifier is off, capacitor holds the peak voltage since it stored a charge during rectifier on time.

What device is also called a rectifier?

A rectifier is an electronic device that changes an AC voltage to a DC voltage.


Why an op-amp diode rectifier called as a precision rectifier?

In a rectifier made of just diodes, the diodes have a voltage drop, resulting in a lower DC output voltage. By introducing an Op-amp, this voltage drop can be overcome. Since there is no voltage drop caused by the diodes, the rectified signal is not changed by the rectifier, so it is called a precision rectifier.


What is tha purpose of a rectifier assembly?

Are you referring to the Rectifier in the Alternator? Simply, a rectifier turns the AC voltage produced my the alternator to run the electrical components in your vehicle and turns it into DC voltage to recharge your battery.The purpose of rectifier assembly is to turn the AC voltage. This is in a car.

How the capacitor removes the ripples from the rectified voltage?

During the AC cycle, the capacitor charges when the rectifier conducts, and maintains the voltage when the rectifier is not conducting.


Is there any application where a center tap rectifier is preferred over a bridge type rectifier?

yes, where only 2 diodes can be used for fullwave rectification. this was the case with vacuum tube power rectifiers (e.g. 5U4 & type 80). these tubes shared a common cathode between 2 plates, the plates were connected to the ends of the secondary, the cathode supplied the rectified B+ voltage to the filter, the centre tap was grounded.


Which rectifier is not directly operated from mains?

Because , the high voltage can destroy the diodes used in the rectifier .


What is voltage regulation of a rectifier?

A: actually a full wave rectifier does not regulate. It will however follow the input minus diodes voltage drops. depending on current it is assumed to be .6 to .7 volts for silicon diodes.
