EE 2231 Chapter : EE2231 Lab5
Document Summary
Purpose: to study the characteristics and operation of half-wave rectifiers and filter circuits. For procedure 1. connect the circuit in fig. For procedure 2. connect the circuit in fig. For procedure 3. replace the 1 microfarad cap from procedure 2 and replace it with a 100 microfarad cap. For procedure 4. repeat parts 1 through 3 with a 20v p-p sine wave instead of a square wave. For procedure 5. connect the circuit in fig. Procedures: (all figures are on page 6 of this report: after assembling figure one with a square wave input voltage of 20v p-p @ 60hz the following sketch was recorded: Notice the output voltage is just below the input voltage. This is due to the . 7v drop across the diode. Lab session #5 half-wave rectifiers: after assembling figure two with a square wave input voltage of 20v p-p @ 60hz the following sketch was recorded:
