    A silicon diode has a threshold voltage of \[0.7\text{ }V\]. If  an input voltage given by \[2\sin (\pi t)\] is supplied to a half wave rectifier circuit using this diode, the rectified output has a peak value of

    A)  \[2V\] 

    B)  \[1.4V\]

    C)  \[1.3V\]

    D)  \[0.7\,V\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Peak value of rectified output voltage = peak value of input voltage - barrier voltage \[=2-0.7=1.3\,V\].
