FULL WAVE RECTIFIER😁😁
FULL WAVE RECTIFIER Junction diode as full wave rectifier Junction diode as a full wave rectifier. A full wave rectifier consists of a transformer, two junction diodes D1 and D2 and a load resistance R1. The input a.c. signal is fed to the primary coil P of the transformer. The two ends A and B of the secondary S are connected to the p-ends of the two diodes D1 and D2 . The secondary is tapped at its central point T which is connected to the n ends of the two diodes through the load resistance Rl . working At any instant, the voltages at the end A (input of D1) and end B (input of D2) of the secondary with respect to the centre tap T will be out of phase of a.c. input, and the end A is positive and the end B is negative with respect to the centre tap T. Then the along diode D1 gets forward biased and conducts current along the path AD1 XYTA, as indicated by the solid arrows. The diode D2 is reverse biased and does not conduct . During the
