🔍 Key Concepts

• Identify what diodes D1 and D2 do to the AC waveform coming from transformer T1. • Recall the difference between a rectifier, a filter, a voltage regulator, and a transformer in a basic DC power supply. • Look at the waveforms E–I and match which section would create a pulsating DC shape from a pure AC input.

💭 Think About

• Starting from the left at section A, follow the energy conversion step‑by‑step: what happens first to AC voltage, and what must happen next before you can smooth or regulate it? • Ask yourself: which block in a power supply is normally built from diodes, which from inductors/capacitors, and which from transistors/zener diodes? • For section B specifically, what is the typical function of a pair of diodes connected to the secondary of a transformer as shown?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which choice corresponds to the block that converts AC to unidirectional (pulsating) DC. • Verify that a filter usually contains an inductor (L) and/or capacitor (C) rather than only diodes. • Verify that a voltage regulator normally includes a controlling element like a transistor plus a reference device (often a zener diode).
