Diode As Rectifier
Diode As Rectifier TerminologyExplanation RectifierIs an electrical device that converts alternating current to direct current.RectificationIs the process to convert an alternating current into a direct current by using diode
Half rectification
First half cycle VRt/sHalf of every cycle of alternating current is made to flow in one direction.The diode is forward biased and current can flow Second half cycle The diode is reverse biased and current can not flow Full rectification
The current flow from A to _____ to load (R) and from _______ to A. A B First half cycle The current flow from B to _____ to load (R) and from _______ to A. Second half cycle
A B
Function of capacitor:Store electric chargesSmoothen a waveform in the rectified output.Separate the a.c and d.c ( as a filter)
