An ideal diode is connected in a circuit with resistance R = 50 Ω and V = 10 V . If an AC input signal shown in the figure is given to the circuit, then the maximum and minimum value of output voltage (without load) is
Options
- A10   V , - 15   V
- B10 V , - 25 V
- C25   V , - 25   V
- D25   V , - 15   V
Correct answer
B. 10 V , - 25 V
Step-by-step solution
For the positive half cycle, the diode is in reverse bias. Due to this there will be no current in the resistor, hence the output voltage V o u t p u t = 10 V For the negative half cycle, the potential difference across output = - 25 V
