Multiple choice

In a full-wave rectifier using two ideal diodes, Vdc and Vm are the dc and peak values of the voltage respectively across a resistive load. If PIV is the peak inverse voltage of the diode, then the appropriate relationships for this rectifier are

  1. Vdc = $\dfrac{V_m}{\pi}$, PIV = 2Vm
  2. Idc = 2$\dfrac{V_m}{\pi}$, PIV = 2Vm
  3. Vdc = 2$\dfrac{V_m}{\pi}$, PIV = Vm
  4. Vdc $\dfrac{V_m}{\pi}$, PIV = Vm
