Best Answer

The Peak inverse voltage (PIV) equals the peak value of the input voltage, and the diode must be capable of withstanding this amount of repetition reverse voltage. For the diode in figure, the maximum value of reverse voltage, designated as PIV, occurs at peak of each positive alternation of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased.

Peak Inverse Voltage at Positive Half Cycle

The Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV) occurs at the peak of each half-cycle of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased . In this circuit, the PIV occurs at the peak of each positive half cycle.
