Question
4 In the full-wave power supply shown in
Figure P9.44 the diodes are 1N4001 with a rated peak
reverse voltage (also called peak inverse voltage) of
50 V. They are fabricated from silicon.
Vune = 170 cos(377t)
n = 0.2941
C = 700 µF
R1 = 2.5 k2
a. Determine the actual peak reverse voltage across
each diode.
b. Explain why these diodes are or are not suitable for
the specifications given.
D4.
=RV.
