A: Ripple is a residual voltage evident as voltage following the AC input frequency. The ripple magnitude is a function of not enough of both filtering capacitance or overloading the output. Increasing capacitance will reduce the ripple or reducing the loading

Unit of ripple factor?

Ripple, in DC power supplies, is technically unitless. Ripple voltage is specified in Volts/Volt, or a percentage. For example, a 12VDC power supply with 120mV (pk-pk) of ripple voltage is (0.12/12) = 1% ripple voltage.


Can you replace a 5 volt power supply with a 10 volt power supply?

If the power supply has a 5 volt tap on the secondary side of the transformer, yes. If there is no tap and the secondary side of the power supply is only 10 volts then no, you can not substitute the higher voltage unit.


Can you use a 12 volt power supply in 6 volt toy?

Using a 12-volt power supply in a 6-volt toy is not recommended, as it can damage the toy's electronic components due to the higher voltage. Excess voltage can lead to overheating, component failure, or even cause a fire hazard. It's best to use a power supply that matches the toy's specified voltage to ensure safe and proper operation.


Can you use a 10 volt power supply for a 9 volt keyboard?

Using a 10 volt power supply for a 9 volt keyboard is not a good idea. The higher voltage will cause damage to the keyboard, burning it out and making it useless.


What is the permissible voltage drop in a 120 volt power supply?

5% from source to farthest load.


The output voltage from a PC power supply are?

Generally, there will be a 12+ volt rail, a 5+ volt rail and often a 3+ volt rail.


What are the 3 wires on a map sensor for a 5.7 hemi?

5 volt supply, sensor ground and signal voltage.5 volt supply, sensor ground and signal voltage.


Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?

No, it is not recommended to run a 570 volt motor on a 480 volt power supply. The motor is rated for a specific voltage to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage. Running the motor at a lower voltage could result in overheating and premature failure.


What does Volt-Amp mean?

A 'volt ampere' (not 'volt amp'!) is the unit for theapparent power of a load in an a.c. circuit. It is simply the product of the supply voltage and the load current.


Can you run a three phase appliance on 240 volt power supply?

No. You need a 3-phase supply that matches the voltage and current rating of your appliance.


How do you convert a 347 Volt power supply to a 120 Volt fixture?

To convert a 347 Volt power supply to a 120 Volt fixture, you can use a step-down transformer designed to handle the voltage difference. Ensure the transformer is rated for the appropriate wattage to support the load of the fixture. Alternatively, you could use a voltage converter or a power supply specifically designed to step down 347 V to 120 V. Always follow electrical codes and safety guidelines when performing such conversions.


What will happen if I try to use a 19 volt power supply to power a 12 volt device?

You run the risk of permanently destroying the device. Some devices have a built-in regulator and can handle a higher voltage (within reason) but many devices don't. So, don't take a chance. Use a voltage regulator or a different power supply.
