Efficiency of a centre tapped full wave rectifier is _________(a) 50%(b) 46%(c) 70%(d) 81.2%This question was posed to me during an interview.The above asked question is from Full-wave Rectifier topic in section Application of Diodes of Electronic Devices & Circuits

Answer»

The correct choice is (d) 81.2%

For explanation: Efficiency of a rectifier is the effectiveness to convert AC to DC. It’s obtained by taking ratio of DC power output to MAXIMUM AC power delivered to load. It’s usually expressed in percentage. For CENTRE tapped full WAVE rectifier, it’s 81.2%.
