Ripples Factor, r pp ,
Smaller ripple respect to dc level meaning better filter circuit.

Exercise
1. 2.
What is the ripple factor of a sinusoidal signal having peak ripple (Vr(p)) of 2V on an average (Vdc) of 50V? Answer : 2.31% The 35 Vrms ac voltage Vs is derived from an ideal 60Hz main transformer. It is connected to a half-wave rectifier and a 220F capacitor to form a dc power supply. If the load RL draws an average current 0.15A, determine: i. the peak-to-peak capacitor ripple voltage Answer : Vr(pp) = 5.6V ii. the average or dc voltage across the load Answer : Vdc = 43.86V iii. the percentage ripple factor, %r. Answer : 12.8%

Ripple factor, r ripple voltage in rms %r = X 100% DC voltage Vr ( rms ) = X 100% Vdc

where Vr ( rms ) =

Vr ( p p ) 2 3

Norsabrina Sihab

Ripples factor, r is also depends to the load, RL Light load Vdc Vm. Therefore very small ripple factor and capacitor filter provides large DC voltage Vdc. voltage, Heavy load Vdc < Vm. Therefore bigger ripple factor and capacitor filter provides smaller DC voltage, Vdc.
