| MsStateDawg Quote | Reply | | full-wave bridge rectifier problem posted on: 1/4/2004 2:23:12 AM I am having to build a full-wave bridge rectifier circuit to test another circuit. The bridge should rectify 120 VAC from a wall outlet to obtain a DC voltage. I realize that the maximum possible DC value that can be produced is 169 VDC. I am trying to acheive as close as possible to 170 VDC. I connected the circuit shown at the following site one of the 3A fuses blew: http://www.ece.msstate.edu/~mw7/full_bridge_rectifier_prototype.htm I don't understand why the fuse would blow with a 20k-ohm load. Does anyone know what could be wrong? |
