For the following rectifier semiconductor diodes, 1N4001, 1N4002, 1N4003, 1N4004, 1N4005, 1N4006 and 1N4007 download either a group data sheet or individual data sheets from the internet. Then make a comparison table which shows the following for each diode (I-IV).

      (I)         Peak Repetitive Reverse Voltage VRRM

                   (Working Peak Reverse Voltage VRWM

                   DC Blocking Voltage VR)

      (II)        Non Repetitive Peak Reverse Voltage VRSM

                   (half wave, single phase, 50/60Hz)

      (III)        RMS Reverse Voltage VR(RMS)

       (IV)      ADD ANYTHING ELSE YOU SEE FIT.

        (V)       From the table state which diodes you would use for a VRRM of 100V and 1000V

      (VI)      Show a copy of a graph which shows the reverse voltage against typical 

                   Capacitance values, say what it shows.

(VII)        For any of the diodes, describe with the aid of diagrams/illustrations itsapplications in an AC to DC                           Bridge rectifier power supply circuit. For your circuit show and describe how you are going to smooth                 out the ripple voltage that will be present.
