IL(dc)=75 mA, VL(dc)=250 V, Vr=ripple voltage=10 V

enter image description here

I) Load resistance

RL=VL(dc)IL(dc)=250V75mA=3.33kΩ     .....(i)

ii) The ripple factor =Vr(rms)VL(dc)=10250

=0.04=4% ...............(ii)

iii)For inductor filtered full wave rectifier

VL(dc)=2VmπIdc×R

By neglecting R. i..e. transformer secondary resistance, inductor and diode resistance

VL(dc)=2Vmπ

Vm=VL(dc)π2=250π2=392.69 V ................(iii)

iv) Ripple factor, r=RL1333L

L=RL1333×r=3.33KΩ1333×0.04=62.45 H ........(iv)

v) PIV rating of diode

2Vm=2×392.69V

=785.38 V ..........................(v)

vi) The secondary voltage rating of transformer

785.382=555.34 V ................(vi)

vii)The voltage drop=0.7 V

Vm=277.67+0.7=278.37 V ...................(vii)

Thus, a transformer with 280 V between center tap and ends carrying 75 mA is sufficient.
