    we have a formula for ripple factor for capacitive filters..
    r.p=1/(4.sq.rt(3).f.c.R)
    SO...FOR HAVING LOW RIPPLE FACTOR,we need to have high load resistance.
    so a capacitive filters are used for low load currents...
    here my doubt why can't we take high capacitance keeping load resistance minimum...??

    what a doubt!Wow!...Ripple factor will reduce the fluctuations in the o/p voltage.IF 'C' is high it will mean more voltage will develop across the capacitor i.e. across the load.So the cap. will maintain a high voltage across the load.If we keep RL low, then the entire purpose of low load currents will be defeated. Don't you think?
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
