Rectifier Circuit Power Supply
• Power supply must supply dc voltage to be constant in
spite of
– variation is ac line voltage
– Variation in current drawn by load, that is variable load resistance
Rectifier Circuits
• Filter
– Smoothes out pulsating dc but still some time-dependent
components-(ripple) remain in the output
• Voltage Regulation
– Reduces ripples
– Stabilizes magnitude of dc output against variation in
load current
– Regulation by Zener Diode or Voltage regulator I.C
