2) For the circuit shown in
i) Is the circuit full-wave or half-wave rectifier? Justify your answer.
ii) Let N; = 200 turns, Np = 100 turns, and V,= 0.6 V. If the input voltage v, is a sine
wave has a peak-to-peak voltage of 20V with a zero average time value, sketch
the input and the output voltage waves versus time over one cycle period andlabel all appropriate voltages (make the output sketch directly under the input’s
one). (12 marks)
