23.

The function of the filter capacitor is to reduce ripple in ________

(a)

output voltage

(b)

output current

(c)

output power

(d)

24.

In Buck-Boost regulator, what happens if off-time is grater than the on-time of the switch?

(a)

Vo > Vi

(b)

Vo < Vi

(c)

Vo = Vi

(d)

Answer:

Option (b)

25.

Which of the following is not the advantage of Cuk Regulator?

(a)

Continuous output current since intermediate energy transfer takes place through capacitor

(b)

Ripples in output voltage and current are much smaller than that of Buck-Boost Converter

(c)

Switch & Diode have to carry both input & output Currents

(d)

A substantial weight & size reduction of cuk converter is the result of smaller filter components, because capacitive energy storage is more efficient than inductive energy storage

Answer:

Option (c)

26.
