Consider the chopper circuit of figure. The chopper operates at $$400$$ $$Hz$$ and $$50$$% duty cycle. The load current remains almost ripple free at $$10A.$$ Assuming the input voltage to be $$200V$$ and the devices to be ideal, the turn-off time available to the thyristor $$Th$$ $$M$$ is____________ $$\mu s$$ GATE EE 1995 Power Electronics - Choppers and Commutation Techniques Question 38 English

A $$dc$$ to $$dc$$ transistor chopper supplied from a fixed voltage $$dc$$ source feeds a fixed resistive-inductive load and a free-wheeling diode. The chopper operates at $$1$$ $$kHz$$ and $$50$$% duty cycle. Without changing the value of the average $$dc$$ current through the load, if it is desired to reduce the ripple content of load current, the control action needed will be
A
Increase the chopper frequency keeping its duty cycle constant
B
Increase the chopper frequency and duty cycle in equal ratio
C
Decrease only the chopper frequency
D
Decrease only the duty cycle.

A chopper operating at a fixed frequency is feeding an $$R$$-$$L$$ load. As the duty ratio of the chopper is increased from $$25\% $$ to $$75\% $$, the ripple in the load current
A
Remains constant
B
Decreases, reaches a minimum at $$50\% $$ duty ratio and then increases
C
Increases, reaches a maximum at $$50\% $$ duty ratio and then decreases
D
Keeps on increasing as the duty ratio is increased
