The basic explanation for the ripple effect is that a sing event causes a number of knock on effects and consequences far beyond the location of the initial event. An example of this might be a tsunami caused by an earthquake under the ocean.

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.


What is ripple frequency-?

How often the ripple occurs i.e. times the ripple occurs per second. The ripple should be a repeating pattern. Figure out where the ripple repeats and measure how long each repetition takes. Measure this in seconds. The frequency is 1/Time where time is the time measured previously.


What is ripple voltage in 12 volt power supply?

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


Ask effect on ripple voltage if load resistance is decreased?

If the load resistance is decreased, the ripple voltage in a power supply circuit typically increases. This occurs because a lower load resistance draws more current, leading to a greater voltage drop across the output capacitor as it discharges more quickly between charging cycles. Consequently, the capacitor may not have enough time to fully charge during each cycle, resulting in a higher ripple voltage. Therefore, a decrease in load resistance generally results in increased ripple voltage.

What is the effect of value of filter capacitor on ripple voltage?

Ripples in electricity are usually defined as small, unwanted variations due to direct current. The effect of using a filter capacitor in this environment may vary, but usually has a smoothing effect on the ripple.

What is the definition of ripple effect?

The ripple effect is named after what happens when a stone is thrown into water. Ripples emanate outwards from the point of impact. The phrase is used in other contexts where the effects of a specific action are felt beyond its immediate location.


What will be the effect on ripple factor if the value of capacitor is reduced?

Ripples will increase if capacitance is decreased.
