Solution

The conduction loss in a diode can be calculated using the formula:

P = I^2 * R

where: P is the power loss, I is the current, and R is the resistance.

However, since the current is a square wave with a 50% duty cycle, the effective current (I_eff) is given by:

I_eff = I_peak * sqrt(D)

where: I_peak is the peak current, and D is the duty cycle.

Substituting the given values:

I_eff = 10A * sqrt(0.5) = 7.07A

Substituting I_eff into the power loss formula:

P = (7.07A)^2 * 0.125 Ohms = 6.25W

Therefore, the total conduction loss in the diode is approximately 6.25 Watts.
