the no load DC output voltage for the full-wave bridge rectifier shown in Figure 3(a): (i) without
and (ii) with a filter capacitor C. With the voltage regulator circuit of Figure 3(b) connected to
the rectifier output of Figure 3(a), and the filter capacitor C = 470 mu F connected to the rectifier
output, determine the load voltage VL, load current IL, source current IS, and Zener current
Also, determine the ripple voltage vr(p-p) at the input and output of the regulator.
Solution
1
(i)
the output voltage when with out capacitor is same as v2.
(ii)
the output voltage with capacitor is v2/fC
