Electrical Engineering XYZ MCQs
Which type of conversion of current is done by diode:
- AC to DC
- DC to DC
- DC to AC
- None of the above
Correct answer: 1. AC to DC
Explanation: A diode is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direction. When used in a circuit, a diode allows only the positive or negative half-cycle of an alternating current (AC) waveform to pass through, effectively converting AC to DC.
