The full-wave rectifier circuit shown in Figure 2.5 (a) in the text is to deliver \(0.2 \mathrm{~A}\) and \(12 \mathrm{~V}\) (peak values) to a load. The ripple voltage is to be limited to \(0.25 \mathrm{~V}\). The input signal is \(120 \mathrm{~V}\) (rms) at \(60 \mathrm{~Hz}\). Assume diode cut-in voltages of \(0.7 \mathrm{~V}\).

(a) Determine the required turns ratio of the transformer.

(b) Find the required value of the capacitor.

(c) What is the PIV rating of the diode?
