  4. 5.4 V

Correct answer: 3. 0.7 V


“The peak inverse voltage for each diode in a center-tapped full-wave rectifier is __ the peak output voltage
plus one diode drop:

  1. One time of the
  2. Twice
  3. Thrice
  4. Four times of

  1. It appears the answer for one of the Diode MCQ is wrong

    The Voltage drop across Silicon diode is:

    0.3 V
    0.5 V
    0.7 V
    1.4 V
    Correct answer: 4. 1.4 V

    I believe the answer should be 0.7V. red LEDs may have voltage drop of 1.4V.
