Component that eliminates fluctuations in rectified voltage and produces arelatively smooth DC voltage is

• rectifier

• modulator

• filter

• amplifier

PIV rating of bridge rectifier is

• greater than center tapped configuration

• less than center tapped configuration

• equals center tapped configuration

• infinite in nature

Component in a clapping circuit which acts as a battery is

• resistor

• inductor

• transformer

• capacitor

Diode limiter in which diode is forward biased during negati Ve attenuation has anode connected to

• input

• output

• ground

• float

Point in a characteristics curve at which barrier potential is overcome and current increases drastically is termed as

• knee of characteristics curve base of characteristics curve

• base of characteristics curve

• core of characteristics curve

• saturation of characteristics curve

Condition in which diode ne Ver intentionally operate is

• reverse biased

• forward biased

• floating biased

• neutral biased

Multiplication of conduction electrons inreverse breakdown condition is called

• avalanche

• breakdown

• break over

• transition

Term refers to rise of DC voltage to establish certain operating conditions for an electronic device is called

• bias

• source

• input

• core

Forward current begin to increase rapidly, when forward bias voltage is increased to a Value of
