Question

the diode in a half - wave rectifier conducts for half the input cycle. select one: true false

Explanation:

A half - wave rectifier uses a single diode. During the positive half - cycle of the input AC voltage, the diode is forward - biased and conducts current. During the negative half - cycle, the diode is reverse - biased and does not conduct. So, the diode conducts for half the input cycle.

Answer:

True
