Sinusoidal Inputs: Half-Wave Rectification
❑ For t= 0 → T/2, the diode is on.
❑Diode is substituted with short-circuit equivalence for ideal diode
(reduce complexity).

Sinusoidal Inputs: Half-Wave Rectification
❑ The effect of using a silicon diode with VK=0.7 is shown.
❑ The diode is “on” when the applied signal is at least 0.7 V.
❑ v o=v i –v K
❑ For Vm>>Vk : VDC≈0.318 (Vm-VK)

PIV (PRV)
Because the diode is only forward biased for one-half of the AC
cycle, it is also reverse biased for one-half cycle.

Example 2.17
Determine the output
waveform for the network
and calculate the output
dc level.
Solution
