1. RECTIFIER OUTPUT
TYPES
Many types of passive filters are in use
• Shunt capacitor filter
• Chock input (LC) filter
• Pi(π) filter or CLC filter or capacitor input filter
3. ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGE
• Low cost
Capacitor draws more
current size and weight
• Small
• Good characteristics
• Can be connected for both HW and FW
rectifiers
• Improved d.c output
