For the step down chopper shown in the figure below, Vs = 100 V and the duty cycle of the switch is 0.8. The load is sufficiently inductive so that the load current is ripple free. The average current through the diode (D) under steady state is
For the step down chopper shown in the figure below, Vs = 100 V and the duty cycle of the switch is 0.8. The load is sufficiently inductive so that the load current is ripple free. The average current through the diode (D) under steady state is Correct Answer 1.6 A
The diode is active only during Toff. If Ton = 0.8 then Toff = 0.2 Output voltage Vo = 0.8 x 100 = 80 V When D is active during Toff, consider inductor as a short circuit thus, Id = (VoxToff)/R = 80 x 0.2/10 = 1.6 A.
