Question

The total secondary voltage in a center-tapped full-wave ideal diode rectifier is 100 V rms. The rms output voltage is

1- 50 V

2- 100 V

3- 99.3 V 

4- 100.7 V

5- 43.3 V

6- 50.7 V

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • We are given a centre tapped full wave ideal diode rectifier
  • Here we need to find the total output voltage in RMS
  • We are given the voltage in RMS on the secondary side
  • The output voltage of a centre tab transformer is always half of the secondary voltage
  • Here we are given secondary voltage as 50Vrms
