Q4. In the full-wave diode rectifier shown below, the diodes are ideal. The source voltage is v, = 300 sin(100zr) V (a) Sketch the output voltage v, (1), on a time interval spanning 2 cycles of the source voltage. (b) Find the ripple voltage V,. (c) Find the conduction duration of the diodes in one half-cycle of the ac source voltage.

With four layers of alternating P- and N- materials, a thyristor is a solid-state semiconductor device. It acts as a type of bi-stable switch and it conducts when the gate receives a current trigger and continues to conduct until the voltage is reverse b…
