MCQ
Diode can work as:
  • A
    Modulator
  • B
    Demodulator
  • C
    Rectifier
  • D
    Amplifier

Answer

  1. Rectifier

Explanation:

Diode can work as rectifier, While converting AC voltage to DC voltage, we use 4 diodes in the form of wheat stone bridge,It effectively works as rectifier.
