PRECISION RECTIFIER AND PRECISION PEAK RECTIFIER
AIM:
To construct precision half wave rectifier and full wave rectifier using Op Amp.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
1.Resistor
2.IC 741
3.Function Generator
4.Diode IN 4001
5.Connecting wires
6.CRO
7.Bread board
THEORY:
The major limitation of ordinary diodes is that it cannot rectify voltage below
0.6v,the cut in voltage of the diode. The precision rectifier, which is also known as a super
diode, is a configuration obtained with an operational amplifier in order to have a circuit
behaving like an ideal diode and rectifier. It can be useful for high-precision signal
processing

FULL WAVE RECTIFIER:
A Full Wave Rectifier is a circuit, which converts an ac voltage into a pulsating
dc voltage using both half cycles of the applied ac voltage. It uses two diodes of
which one conducts during one half cycle while the other conducts during the other
half cycle of the applied ac voltage.
During the positive half cycle of the input voltage, diode D1 becomes forward
biased and D2 becomes reverse biased. Hence D1 conducts and D2 remains OFF.
The load current flows through D1 and the voltage drop across R L will be equal to
the input voltage. During the negative half cycle of the input voltage, diode D1
becomes reverse biased and D2 becomes forward biased. Hence D1 remains OFF
and D2 conducts. The load current flows through D2 and the voltage drop across RL
will be equal to the input voltage.
