Half-Wave Rectifier: Average Output Voltage (V_dc = V_m / π)
jee-mainneet-ug
V_dc = V_m / π
What each symbol means
| Symbol | What it stands for |
|---|---|
| V_m | Peak voltage of AC input (V) |
| V_dc | Average (DC) output across load (ideal diode, resistive load) |
When to use this
Single diode, sinusoidal input, conduction half-cycle only; ideal diode; resistive load.
