Figure shows an inductor filter. An inductor filter consists of a choke in series with the load. The rectified output contains ac as well as dc components. The inductor acts as a short circuit for dc components and part of ac components blocked by it. Only small amount of ac components reach the output. Thus, ac components are reduced or filtered by the inductor.
