A full wave center – tapped transformer rectifier in a power supply provides an average dc output voltage of 14V on which a maximum ripple of plus minus 0.5 volt is allowed. Diodes have a 0.7 Volt drop when conducting. Assuming a resistive load of 120 ohm, a line voltage of 120V rms @ 60Hz through a transformer,
Sketch the circuit diagram for the rectifier
What is the rms voltage across the transformer secondary?
Determine the size of filter capacitor required
Assuming 50% safety margin, what diode PIV rating is appropriate?
