    Predicting maximum current flow of diode in half/full-wave rectifier

    Alright, understood. For circuit 1, Vo = Vs - 0.6 because there is only one diode, yes? Just want to confirm. For circuit 2, the diode current must be found for either D3/D4/D5/D6, since all four diodes share the same forward voltage drop = 0.6 V. So based on that logic, would the diode...

    Predicting maximum current flow of diode in half/full-wave rectifier

    Sorry, I don't get you at the "it's a sinwave and you know its amplitude." Amplitude is 10, so therefore maximum voltage is 10? Then what is the point of the Vs equation?

    Predicting maximum current flow of diode in half/full-wave rectifier

    Diode forward voltage drop = 0.6 V R3 = 18 kΩ Vs = 10sin(2π*10000t) V Half wave rectifier circuit diagram: Full wave rectifier circuit diagram: How do you predict the maximum current flow for the D1 diode for both scenarios? I'm stuck at this part because the Vs value has an unknown variable.
