In the given circuit the input voltage Vin{V}_{in} is shown in figure. The cut-in voltage of p−np - n junction diode (D1orD2{D}_{1} or {D}_{2}) is 0.6V0 . 6V. Which of the following output voltage (V0)\left({V}_{0}\right) waveform across the diode is correct?

In the given circuit the input voltage V _ in is shown in figure. The cut-in voltage of p - n junction diode ( D _ 1 or

Options

  1. AAssuming that the human pupil has a radius of 0 . 25cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25cm . The minimum
  2. BAssuming that the human pupil has a radius of 0 . 25cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25cm . The minimum
  3. CAssuming that the human pupil has a radius of 0 . 25cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25cm . The minimum
  4. DAssuming that the human pupil has a radius of 0 . 25cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25cm . The minimum

Correct answer

D. Assuming that the human pupil has a radius of 0 . 25cm and a comfortable viewing distance of 25cm . The minimum

Step-by-step solution

During the positive half cycle of the input waveform, diode D1{D}_{1} is forward biased and diode D2{D}_{2} is reverse biased. Here 0.6V0 . 6V appears across the output as the diode is conducting. During negative half cycle the diode D1{D}_{1} is reverse biased and D2{D}_{2} is forward biased, so, −0.6V- 0 . 6V appears across the output as the diode is conducting in negative direction. This circuit can be used as a voltage limiter. This circuit will not allow any voltage above 0.6V0 . 6Vand below −0.6V- 0 . 6V.

Hence, the output waveform is
