Full Wave Bridge Rectifier With Capacitor Filter

 Full Wave Bridge Rectifier With Capacitor Filter

The voltage obtained across the load resistor of the full-wave bridge rectifier described above has a large
amount of ripple. A capacitor filter may be added to smooth-en the ripple in the output, as shown below.

The rectifier circuits discussed above can be used to charge batteries and to convert AC voltages into constant

DC voltages. Full-wave and bridge rectifier are more commonly used than half-wave rectifier.

MATLAB

Introduction to MATLAB Goal The goal of this tutorial is to give a brief introduction to the mathematical software MATLAB. After completing the worksheet you should know how to start MATLAB, how to use the elementary functions in MATLAB and how to use MATLAB to plot functions. What is MATLAB? MATLAB is widely used in all areas of applied mathematics, in education and research at universities, and in the industry. MATLAB stands for MATrix LABoratory and the software is built up around vectors and matrices. This makes the software particularly useful for linear algebra but MATLAB is also a great tool for solving algebraic and differential equations and for numerical integration. MATLAB has powerful graphic tools and can produce nice pictures in both 2D and 3D. It is also a programming language, and is one of the easiest programming languages for writing mathematical programs. MATLAB also has some tool boxes useful for signal processing, image processing, optimization, etc. How ...
