What does filter do in a transformer?

A transformer does not use a filter. You may be asking about the use of a filter in a power supply. A power supply uses a filter to change pulsating DC from the rectifier into smooth DC for the circuits that the power supply powers.


Can you convert a DC motor to run on AC?

The easiest way would be to convert the AC power to DC by using a rectifier diode and a filter capacitor. In that way you can now run your DC motor on DC.


What is the difference between filter and rectifier?

A rectifier is a device that contains diodes to convert an AC supply into DC. The resultant DC voltage has ripple on it at twice the source frequency, or six times the source frequency for a 3-phase rectifier. The subsequent filter is there to filter out the ripple to provide a constant dc voltage. On power supplies the filter is often a series inductor, while on low-power supplies used in electronics the filter is a parallel capacitor. Additional components may be added to give extra pure DC is required.


How do you build a dc to dc converter?

A DC to DC converter is basically a type of switching power supply. The switcher converts the input DC to AC. A transformer is used to convert the AC to the desired voltage. A rectifier, filter, and optional regulator is used to convert the AC back to DC.


What is the function of a filter capacitor in a power supply?

A: The function is to change the pulsating DC into a smooth DC by removing the peak changes. The results are very little AC variation riding on top of the DC value or simply referred as ripple.


How does a filter operates in DC power supply?

It removes the remaining AC ripple after the rectifier, using capacitors (to bypass it to ground) and/or inductors (to block it).


How can an ac generator be converted to DC generator?

It may not be possible to physically convert AC generator to DC generator. What can be done is that 'Rectifier' of suitable capacity can be connected to the out put of AC generator to get DC supply.


How does a power adaptor work?

it converts AC line voltage to DC low voltage. at first by transformer it setps-down the voltage then it rectified by bridge rectifier ckt. by this there is rippled DC output is there. then is this fed to filter circuit to filter the ripples and its given to regulator circuit to produce fine and smooth pure DC voltage. nowady SMPS (switch mode power supply) is use rather then older iron core transformers. SMPS have plenty of advantages over the Linear power adaptor. :))


How do you charge a supercapacitor?

use a dc power source. preferably an ac/dc power adapter. any dc power source will do.


Full form of DC power supply?

DC Power is Direct Current Power Supply.


What IS AC power and DC power?

AC Power is Alternating Current whereas DC Power is Direct Current.


How you convert a power supply into 12v DC?

DC 12V power supply can convert 110/220V AC power source to 12V DC.
