[!TLDR]

Duty ratio =TON/T=0.5= T_{ON}/T = 0.5, so Vdc=0.5×50=25V_{dc} = 0.5 \times 50 = 25 V.

A DC chopper controls its average output by switching the supply on for a fraction of each period. The controlling quantity is the duty ratio =TON/T= T_{ON}/T, and the average output voltage is

Vdc=(TONT)VSV_{dc} = \left(\frac{T_{ON}}{T}\right) V_S …
