Which of the following best describes a standard full wave rectifier power supply?

  • It uses a capacitor input filter to provide good voltage regulation.
  • It must only use a single diode rectifier.
  • Correct Answer
    The ripple frequency is twice the input frequency.
  • It must always use a center tapped transformer secondary.

Which of the following statements concerning power supply filters is true?

  • A capacitor input has high output voltage, good voltage regulation, low rectifier peak currents and low transformer utilization factor.
  • A capacitor input has low output voltage, poor voltage regulation, high rectifier peak currents and low transformer utilization factor.
  • An Inductive input has poor voltage regulation, low transformer utilization factor, high rectifier peak currents and relative low output voltage.
  • Correct Answer
    An Inductive input has good voltage regulation, high transformer utilization factor, low rectifier peak currents and relatively low output voltage.

What are the main advantages of using switcher type power supply?

  • Correct Answer
    Line voltage is directly rectified and filtered to produce a high dc voltage, components are much smaller and lighter weight, can provide much better efficiency.
  • The transformed voltage is directly rectified and filtered to produce a high dc voltage, components are much smaller and lighter weight and can provide much better efficiency.
  • They use laminated steel transformers which are more efficient.
  • Using a center tapped transformer secondary allows fewer rectifiers to be used.

What are the disadvantages of using a switcher type power supply?

  • Increased complexity (more likelihood of a component failure), increased cost (many more parts) and tendency to create radiated AF.
  • Correct Answer
    Increased complexity (more likelihood of a component failure), increased cost (many more parts) and tendency to create radiated RF.
  • Decreased complexity (less likelihood of a component failure) and decreased cost (fewer parts and tendency to create radiated RF.
  • Decreased complexity (less likelihood of a component failure) and decreased cost (fewer parts and tendency to create radiated AF.
