consider a capacitor connected in parallel with the load resistor at the output if a full wave rectifier decreasing the load resistance RL will result uh a reduction if the voltage ripple
Added by Juan Jos- L.
Step 1
- A capacitor is in parallel with the load resistor RL at the output of a full-wave rectifier (filter capacitor input). - Decreasing RL makes the load draw more current from the filter capacitor. Show more…

In the operation of a half-wave rectifier with a capacitor-input filter, the ripple factor can be lowered by adjusting the value of the filter capacitor or the load resistor.
Penny R.
A full wave rectifier produces a 100V peak from a 60 hz AC source. Determine the ripple factor if the output of the first filter capacitor is fed into a RC filter with 100-ohm resistance and 20 uF capacitance.
Adi S.
A 60 V peak full-wave rectified voltage is applied to a capacitor-input filter. If f = 120 Hz, RL = 10 kΩ, and C = 10 μF, the ripple factor is 0.087.
