Rectifiers & Filters

If a centre tap transformer is used with two p-n junction diodes for full wave rectification then output voltage of rectifier with respect to each diode is (secondary voltage of transformer $= \text{V}_\text{s}$ )

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

The centre tap splits the secondary into two equal halves.
Each diode works with one half, so it gets $\frac{V_s}{2}$ .
So the answer is (c) $\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)V_s$ .
