Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to gain experience with diodes, AC/DC conversion, and power supply filtering.
Procedure
Measure the I-V characteristics of diode with a 2-wire analyzer on ELVIS board, discus results. Build a half-wave rectifier. Show the circuit used and sketch the inputs and outputs. With a \(1\mu F\)capacitor as a filter test the output of across a \(10k\Omega\) resistor and a \(1k\Omega\) resistor. Describe what happens in each, explain why.
Build a full-wave rectifier and preform the same assessment. Build a regulated power supply using an LM317L variable voltage regulator.
