[figure] In the circuit shown here, assuming threshold voltage of diode is negligibly small, then voltage VAB is correctly represented by:

  1. [figure]
  2. [figure]
  3. VAB would be zero at all times.
  4. [figure]

Answer

(2) [figure]

Solution

The diode conducts only when the lower terminal of the source is at the higher potential (current: lower terminal → diode → B → R → A → upper terminal).

When V = V0 t > 0 (upper terminal positive), the diode is reverse biased no current through R VAB = 0.

When V0 t < 0, the ideal diode conducts B is joined to the lower terminal and A to the upper terminal

VAB = V0 t (negative).

VAB is zero in the positive half cycles and follows the negative half cycles of the input, as in option (2).

Answer: (2)
