In DC chopper, the waveform for input and output voltages are _______ respectively.
In DC chopper, the waveform for input and output voltages are Continuous and discontinuous respectively.
When the chopper is operating under continuous conduction mode (CCM), the input voltage waveform is continuous and the output voltage waveform is also continuous. This means that the current through the inductor does not drop to zero during the switching cycle, and the output voltage is regulated by controlling the duty cycle of the chopper.
When the chopper is operating under discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), the input voltage waveform is still continuous, but the output voltage waveform becomes discontinuous. This happens when the current through the inductor drops to zero during the switching cycle. In this mode, the output voltage is regulated by controlling the peak current through the inductor.
