Question:

Consider the half-wave rectifier circuit of Figure a. The circuit is driven by a triangular voltage source Vs (t) of amplitude V0 = 9 V as shown in Fig. 10.50. Assuming the diode to be ideal and for a resistor R = 1.5 k?:

a. Plot the resistor voltage VR (t).

b. Calculate the rms value of the resistor voltage.

c. Calculate the time-averaged power dissipation in the resistor.
