Carlyn Annunziata Q1: a)Practical model, ๐๐ท drop across each diode in series: ๐๐ท = ๐๐ = 3๐๐ท = 2.1V b) ๐๐ท = 5 ๐โ 2. 1 ๐
For ๐๐ท = 0.125W: ๐๐ท =0.125W= ๐๐๐๐ Solving for ๐๐: ๐๐= (0.00116)(0. 125 W)= 0.145mV. Yes, diodes and resistor can survive. Q2: a)๐ท 1 is 5 .1V Zener diode in Reverse bias and regular diode in Forward bias. ๐ท 2 is a PN junction diode, 0.7V when forward bias and OFF when Reverse bias. In the condition when both diodes are ON, there is a contradiction. When both ON, the ๐๐ for analysis of ๐ท 1 is 5.1V, and for ๐ท 2 , ๐๐ is 0.7V.
If Zener diode is ON, and ๐ท 2 is OFF: Cathode side is 10V and anode side is 5.1V. Then: ๐๐ท = 10V-5.1V= 4.9V, Which is less than the cut-in voltage required. Current flowing to the Zener diode is 0mA. When ๐ท 2 ON and Zener diode, ๐ท 1 , is OFF: ๐๐ = 0.7V The current through the PN junction diode is: ๐๐ = ๐๐ โ๐ 0 ๐
10 ๐โ 0. 7 ๐ 1 ๐ฮฉ = 9 .3mA. b)In Figure 2.2, when both ๐ท 1 and ๐ท 2 are ON, by voltage division: ๐๐ = ๐ 2 ๐ 1 +๐ 2 (๐๐ )^ =^ 6.5V. For the case when both ๐ท 1 and ๐ท 2 are OFF, the diodes act as an open circuit: ๐๐ = 10V, ๐๐ 1 = ๐๐ 2 =0mA. ๐ = 10 ๐
For the half wave rectified circuit, the secondary output voltrage is found from the expression: ๐ 2 ๐ 1 =^ ๐๐ 2 ๐๐ 1 , Where N 1 :N 2 is given to be 10:1, and ๐๐ 1 is 170V. Solving for VS 2 : ๐๐ 2 = 17V, The peak to peak output voltage is given by the expression: ๐๐๐ = ๐๐ 2 - (๐ฃ๐ท)= 17V-0.7V = 16.3V, With diode of 0.7V on for each half wave. ๐ผ๐ = ๐๐๐ ๐ =^
Where T = 1/f. Solving for capacitance: C = 2 9 ๐F.
