    Rectifier calculation

    Since the vast majority of power supply designs use a full-wave rectifier, the
    diodes of which are connected in a bridge circuit (Fig. 1), the choice of its
    elements will be discussed here. Calculating a rectifier means choosing the
    right rectifier diodes and filter capacitor, as well as determining the necessary
    alternating voltage removed for rectification from the secondary winding of the
    mains transformer. The initial data for calculating the rectifier are: the required
    voltage at the load (Uн) and the maximum current consumed by it (Iн).

    The calculation is carried out in the following order:

    1. Determine the alternating voltage that should be on the secondary winding


    of the mains transformer:

    U2 =BUн,

    where: Uн - constant voltage at the load, V;


    B is a coefficient depending on the load current, which is determined from
    Table. one.
    Load current, A
    Coefficient
    0,1 0,2 0,4 0,6 0,8 1,0
    В 0,8 1,0 1,9 1,4 1,5 1,7
    С 2,4 2,2 2,0 1,9 1,8 1,8

    2. The maximum current flowing through each diode of the rectifier bridge is
    determined by the load current:
    Iд = 0,5 C Iн,

    where: Iд - t * ok through the diode, A;


    Iн - maximum load current, A;
    C is a coefficient depending on the load current (determined according to
    Table 1).

    3. Calculate the reverse voltage that will be applied to each rectifier diode:

    Uarr = 1,5Uн,

    where: Uarr - reverse voltage, V;


    Uн - load voltage, V.

    4. Diodes are selected, in which the values of the rectified current and the
    permissible reverse voltage are equal to or exceed the calculated ones.

    5. Determine the capacitance of the filter capacitor:

    Сф = 3200 Iн /Uн Kп,

    where: Cф - capacitance of the filter capacitor, uF;


    Iн - maximum load current. A;
    Uн - load voltage, V;
    Kп - ripple coefficient of the rectified voltage (the ratio of the amplitude value of
    the variable component with a frequency of 100 Hz at the rectifier output to
    the average value of the rectified voltage).

    For various loads, the ripple factor should not exceed a certain value,
    otherwise the AC hum will be heard in the dynamic head or loudspeaker. To
    power portable receivers and tape recorders, for example, the rectified voltage
    ripple factor is within 10-3... 10-2, RF and IF amplifiers - 10-4... 10-3, preliminary
    cascades of low-frequency amplifiers and microphone amplifiers - 10 -5... 10-4.
    If the output voltage of the rectifier is additionally stabilized by a transistor
    voltage stabilizer, then the calculated capacitance of the filter capacitor can be
    reduced by 5...10 times.
