Rectifiers: Marino, Christian Rey G. ECEA101L-E02 MARCH 11, 2020

The document describes different types of rectifiers, including half-wave, center tap full wave, and bridge rectifiers. It provides circuit diagrams and explanations of how each rectifier type converts alternating current to direct current. For a half-wave rectifier, only the positive half cycles of the input pass through. A center tap full wave rectifier uses a center tapped transformer and two diodes to rectify both half cycles. A bridge rectifier circuit uses four diodes in a bridge configuration to provide full wave rectification without a center tap.

HALF-WAVE
RECTIFIER
OPERATION OF HALF-WAVE RECTIFIER

• PN intersection diode leads just during the forward bias condition. Half wave rectifier utilizes a similar guideline
as PN intersection diode and accordingly changes over AC to DC. In a half-wave rectifier circuit, the heap
obstruction is associated in arrangement with the PN intersection diode. Substituting current is the contribution of
the half-wave rectifier. A stage down transformer takes an info voltage and the subsequent yield of the transformer
is given to the heap resistor and to the diode.
OPERATION OF HALF-WAVE RECTIFIER

• During the positive half cycle, the diode is under sending forwarding bias conditions. During the negative half
cycle, the diode is under turn around predisposition condition. The voltage yield is estimated over the heap
obstruction. During the positive half-cycles, the yield is sure and noteworthy. What's more, during the negative
half cycle, the yield is zero or immaterial. This is known as half-wave correction.

• The half-wave rectifier circuit diagram is composed of an AC source, a diode, and a 3.3K
resistor. The input is at the left of the diode and the output is at the right of the diode.

• The green plot is from the input and the blue plot is from the output. The plot shows positive
half-cycles of the ac input voltage.
CENTER TAP
FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER
OPERATION OF CENTER TAP FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER

• A center tapped full wave rectifier is a kind of rectifier which utilizes a middle tapped transformer and two diodes
to change over the total AC signal into DC signal.
• The center tapped full wave rectifier is comprised of an AC source, a middle tapped transformer, two diodes, and a
heap resistor.
OPERATION OF CENTER TAP FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER

• The AC source is associated with the essential twisting of the center tapped transformer. An center tap tap (extra
wire) associated at the specific center of the optional winding partitions the information voltage into two sections.
• The upper piece of the optional winding is associated with the diode D1 and the lower some portion of the
auxiliary winding is associated with the diode D2. Both diode D1 and diode D2 are associated with a typical
burden RL with the assistance of a middle tap transformer. The middle tap is commonly considered as the ground
point or the zero voltage reference point.
CENTER TAP FULL WAVE RECTIFIER

• Center tap full wave compose of 2


diodes, 1 resistor, and ac input
voltage. The “K Lp Ls1 Ls2 1” is
the indication that the circuit is a
transformer.

the blue plot is the input voltage.

BRIDGE TYPE
FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER
OPERATION OF BRIDGE TYPE FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER

• An outline of the essential bridge rectifier circuit has an bridge rectifier obstruct at the inside. This comprises of an
extension circuit which incorporates four diodes. These can be singular diodes, or it is additionally simple to get
connect rectifiers as a solitary electronic part.
• The bridge rectifier provides full wave rectification and has the advantage over the full wave rectifier using two
diodes that no center tap is required in the transformer. This means that a single winding is used for both halves of
the cycle.
OPERATION OF BRIDGE TYPE FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER

• Wound electronic segments are costly and including a center tap implies that two indistinguishable windings, each
giving the full voltage are expected to give the full wave amendment. This copies the quantity of turns and builds
the expense of the transformer. This can be especially significant when planning straight force supplies or other
electronic gadgets.
• To see how the bridge diode full wave rectifier operates it is useful to see the current flow over a compete cycle of
the incoming waveform.
OPERATION OF BRIDGE TYPE FULL WAVE
RECTIFIER

• In most power supply applications, whether for linear voltage regulators, or for switch ode power supply
applications, the output from a bridge rectifier will be connected to a smoothing capacitor as part of the load.
• These electronic components accept charge during the high voltage parts of the waveform and then give out charge
to the load as the voltage falls. In this way they provide a more constant voltage than the direct output from the
bridge rectifier. This allows other circuits like the linear voltage regulators and switch mode power supplies to
operate correctly.
BRIDGE TYPE FULL WAVE RECTIFIER

• A slightly more complex diode circuit


allows us to use the whole wave. This
circuit is known as a bridge rectifier
circuit. As we can see, the negative part
of the AC wave is "folded over" by the
diodes to give us a positive voltage.
Adding a capacitor to the circuit would
produce a reasonably good unregulated
DC voltage.
Circuit Diagram
BRIDGE TYPE FULL WAVE RECTIFIER
• The junction of D2 and D3 is grounded
as part of the AC grounding regulation
and the junction of D1 and D2 is
grounded by the external device, so D2
is shorted out. When the AC signal is
positive, the current flow is through
D4, the load and then to ground as in
half wave rectification. When the AC
signal is negative, D2 becomes forward
biased, and when the voltage across the
Circuit Diagram with graph diode is forced beyond 0.7V the diode
will expire, leaving you with a half
wave rectifier.
