Ripple factor is the ratio of______________________?

Correct answer: A. Rms value of the ac component of load voltage to the dc voltage

  • A. Rms value of the ac component of load voltage to the dc voltage
  • B. Average value of the ac component of load voltage to the peak value of voltage
  • C. Average value of the dc component of load voltage to the ac voltage
  • D. Peak value of the dc component of load voltage to the ac voltage

Explanation

Ripple factor measures the unwanted AC content relative to the useful DC component, so it is the RMS value of the AC load-voltage component divided by the DC voltage.
