Unregulated power supply

Use a transformer for the experiment.

here is a description of the transformer.

Half-Wave Rectifier Circuit

1.)Consider building circuit below.

Determine the components needed in order to make the output ripple have a [math]\Delta V[/math] less than 1 Volt.

List the components below and show your instructor the output observed on the scope.

Determine the components needed in order to make the above circuit's output ripple have a [math]\Delta V[/math] less than 0.5 Volt.

List the components below and show your instructor the output observed on the scope.

1.) Choose R in the above circuit so the low-pass filter breakpoint is less than 60 Hz.

2.) Measure the quantities below using at least 4 different load resistors.
