A silicon diode has a threshold voltage of0.7 V. If an input voltage given by2sin(πt) is supplied to a half-wave rectifier circuit using this diode, the rectified output has a peak value of

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The peak value of rectified output voltage = peak value of input voltage–barrier voltage

= 2  - 0.7 = 1.3 V
