A Couple of

Observations

The

diode conducts for a brief interval (

D

t ) near the peak

of the input sinusoid

and supplies the capacitor with

T discharge interval. The latter is approximately equal to charge equal to that lost during the much longer

.

Assuming an ideal diode, the diode

conduction begins at

time

t 1

(at which the input

v I equals the exponentially

decaying output

v

O ). Diode

conduction stops at time

t 2

shortly after the peak of

v

I (the exact value of

t 2 (^) is

determined by settling of

I

D ).
