Predict the expected peak voltage to ground of the output of the rectifier for both transformer settings. Predict the ripple of the filter output of BFPS ACin for a 12 ohm load. Assume C-bulk (see figure) is a 47mF filter capacitor and line input frequency of -ITP3 D1 60Hz. The marked TP connections are banana plugs connectors.

Explanation / Answer

Input voltage = 120 Vrms

Transformaer ratio given is 1:10 and 1:20, So Vout = 1200 Vrms and 2400 Vrms

For bridge rectifier, Vrms = Vmax / (square root of 2)

Output voltage , Vout = (square root of 2) * Vrms which gives Vout = 1697.05 Volts and 3394.1 Volts.

For Bridge rectifiers, Outpur ripple voltage is given by , Vripple = IL / ( C* f) i.e., Load current / ( load capacitance * Frequency)

IL is given by Maximum output voltage / Load resistance ;

Vripple = 1697.05 / ( 12*60*4.7 * 10 -3) and 33974.1 / (12*60*4.7 * 10 -3)

= 501.49 volts for 1:10 transformer and 1002.98 volts for 1:20 transformer.
