Ripple factor of a half wave rectifier is_________(Im is the peak current and RL is load resistance)(a) 1.414(b) 1.21(c) 1.4(d) 0.48The question was posed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.I'm obligated to ask this question of Half-Wave Rectifier in section Application of Diodes of Electronic Devices & Circuits

Answer»

The correct choice is (b) 1.21

To explain I would say: The ripple factor of a RECTIFIER is the measure of DISTURBANCES PRODUCED in the output. It’s the EFFECTIVENESS of a power supply filter to reduce the ripple voltage. The ratio of ripple voltage to DC output voltage is ripple factor which is 1.21.
