The half-wave rectifier in Fig. P3.94 is operating at a frequency of 60 Hz, and the rms value of the transformer output voltage is 6.3 V. (a) What is the value of the dc output voltage Vo if the diode voltage drop is 1 V? (b) What is the minimum value of C required to maintain the ripple voltage to less than 0.25 V if R = 0.5 Ω? (c) What is the PIV rating of the diode in this circuit? (d) What is the surge current when power is first applied? (e) What is the amplitude of the repetitive current in the diode?
