Eeo 352-3

Experiment 3 involves building and characterizing a DC power supply. Key components of a DC power supply include a transformer, rectifier, filter, and voltage regulator. The experiment measures the supply's performance based on its ripple voltage and ability to maintain a steady output voltage under varying loads.

Safety: Wall plug voltage shock!


Rectifier Circuits
 Half-wave

 Full-wave

USB oscilloscope limit: <10 V


Caution
 Do not burn the load resistor.
- P=V2/R
- Hot by the touch
- Smell
- Resistor turning brown
 Use several resistors in parallel to increase
the power handling capability.
Filter
  filter
- Low pass
 Electrolytic capacitor
- Polarity important
 Larger R
- Lower ripple but more voltage drop
- R limited to 1-10 
- Inductor preferred
 No regulation
- Voltage drops 1 V for 100 mA current
Characterization
 Ripple
- Peak-to-peak, RMS, or percentage
 Loading Effect
- Reduction in output voltage as current increases
Loading Effect
Regulator
 Very small or no ripple
 Almost no loading effect
 Precaution
- Must have sufficient input voltage
- Insufficient input voltage
• Drop out of regulation
• Sudden increase in ripple
LM317/7805 Regulator IC
