    This document summarizes a student mini-project on a full wave rectifier circuit. It was submitted by four students (Shivam Mandal, Vicky Pawar, Debasis Nayak, and Krunal Luste) under the guidance of Prof. Rashmi Maheshwari. The document introduces full wave rectification and describes the components, theory of operation, and conclusion of the full wave bridge rectifier circuit built by the students. It explains that a full wave rectifier uses both half-cycles of the AC input to produce DC output, while a half wave rectifier only uses one half-cycle, making it more efficient.

    • CONCLUSION
    INTRODCTION
    A Full wave rectifier is a circuit arrangement
    which makes use of both half cycles of input
    alternating current (AC) and converts them to
    direct current (DC). In our tutorial on Half wave
    rectifiers, we have seen that a half wave rectifier
    makes use of only one-half cycle of the input
    alternating current. Thus a full wave rectifier is
    much more efficient (double+) than a half wave
    rectifier. This process of converting both half
    cycles of the input supply (alternating current) to
    direct current (DC) is termed full wave
    rectification.
    Full wave rectifier can be constructed in 2 ways.
    The first method makes use of a centre tapped
    transformer and 2 diodes. This arrangement is
    known as Center Tapped Full Wave Rectifier.
    The second method uses a normal transformer
    with 4 diodes arranged as a bridge. This
    arrangement is known as a Bridge Rectifier.
    COMPONENTS

    • Step down transformer-1 (230V to 12V


    or 110V to 12V)

    • Diodes-4 (1N4007)
    • Capacitor-1 (470µF)
    • Led-1 (Red)
    • Resistor-1 (1K)

    THEORY
    The working & operation of a full wave bridge
    rectifier is pretty simple. The circuit diagrams
    and waveforms we have given below will help
    you understand the operation of a bridge rectifier
    perfectly. In the circuit diagram, 4 diodes are
    arranged in the form of a bridge. The transformer
    secondary is connected to two diametrically
    opposite points of the bridge at points A & C.
    The load resistance RL is connected to bridge
    through points B and D.
    The full wave rectifier circuit consists of two
    power diodes connected to a single load
    resistance (RL) with each diode taking it in turn to
    supply current to the load resistor. When point A
    of the transformer is positive with respect to point
    A, diode D1 conducts in the forward direction as
    indicated by the arrows.When point B is positive
    in the negative half of the cycle with respect to C
    point, the diode D2 conducts in the forward
    direction and the current flowing through resistor
    R is in the same direction for both half-cycles of
    the wave.
    CONCLUSION

    Hence by using full wave rectifier, we have on the
