Types of Full Wave Rectifier
A full wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant polarity (Positive or negative) at its output by reversing the negative (or positive) portions of the alternating current waveform.
FULL
WAVE RECTIFIER
A
full wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant
polarity (Positive or negative) at its output by reversing the negative (or
positive) portions of the alternating current waveform. The positive (or
negative) portions thus combined with the reversed negative or positive to
produce an entirely positive (or negative) voltage/current waveform.
Types
of full wave rectifier:
•
Center tap design
•
Full wave bridge
One
kind of full-wave rectifier, called the center-tap design, uses a transformer
with a center-tapped secondary winding and two diodes.
