II. RESUME OF THEORY

Full wave rectifier with filter capasitor. When The output voltage of the full wave rectifier is not
constant, it is always pulsating. But this cannot be used in real life applications. In other words, we
desire a DC power supply with a constant output voltage. In order to achieve a smooth and constant
voltage a filter with a capacitor or an inductor is used. The circuit diagram below shows a half wave
rectifier with capacitor filter.

Capacitor filter work principle is The rectifier’s exciting voltage is given across the terminals of a
capacitor. Whenever the voltage of the rectifier enhances then the capacitor will be charged as well
as supplies the current to the load. At the last part of the quarter phase, the capacitor will be charged
to the highest rectifier voltage value that is denoted with Vm, and then the voltage of the rectifier
starts to reduce. As this happens, the capacitor starts discharging through the voltage across it and
load. The voltage across the load will reduce little only because the next peak voltage occurs
instantaneously to charge the capacitor. This procedure will repeat many times and the output
waveform will be seen that very slight ripple is missing in the output. Furthermore, the output voltage
is superior because it remains significantly close to the highest value of the output voltage of the
rectifier.

A filter circuit can be constructed using both inductor and capacitor in order to obtain a better output
where the efficiencies of both inductor and capacitor can be used. The figure below shows the circuit
diagram of a LC filter. The rectified output when given to this circuit, the inductor allows dc
components to pass through it, blocking the ac components in the signal. Now, from that signal, few
more ac components if any present are grounded so that we get a pure dc output.
This filter is also called as a Choke Input Filter as the input signal first enters the inductor. The output
of this filter is a better one than the previous ones.

3. Difference rectifier C filter and LC

The most basic difference between the two filters is the process of reducing the ripple. Filter capacitors
are carried out by connecting capacitors to the load in parallel so that the capacitors will prolong the current
flowing to the load thereby reducing the ripple in the voltage. filter capacitors have the principle of the
capacitor charging and discharging process. when the diode is forward, the capacitor is charged and the beam
is the same as the source voltage swing. Charging takes place up to a maximum value, at that time the
capacitor resistor with Vp. Whereas when using the R L filter, the Vdc will be greater than Vin due to the
magnetic induction induced by the inductor.

VI. CONCLUSION

From the results of simulations that have been carried out it can be seen that there is a difference between
the use of filter capacitors and capacitor inductor filters. This is evidenced by the output wave like in the
experiment table. When using a ripple wave capacitor filter, the current at the output does not reach the
point of stability. But it would be better if you use two capacitors. Meanwhile, by using an inductor and
capacitor filter, the resulting voltage increases due to the magnetic field generated by the inductor which
causes a clean dc voltage
