Q

How is the capacitor connected for it to be used as a signal filter?

A

For a capacitor to function as a filter, it must be placed in parallel to the output load.

Q

What does a choke inductor do to the output of the rectifier?

A

The choke inductor resists change in current of the output under varying load conditions.

Q

How does the capacitor maintain a higher average output signal?

A

When AC signal lowers to a level less than the voltage of the stored energy of the capacitor, voltage then comes from the capacitor to the load.

Q

What is the purpose of a bleeder resistor placed at the output?

A

A bleeder resistor is also called a safety resistor that drains the capacitor when the load is removed.
