1)a) Halt wave rectufier
Theory
The process of converting an alternating current into direct current is known as
rectification. The unidirectional conductlon property of semiconductor diodes (junction
diodes) is used for rectfication. Rectifiers are of wo types: (a) Half wave rectifier and (b)
Full wave rectifier.
In a half-wave rectifier circuit, during the positive half-cycle of the input, the diode is
forward biased and conducts. Current flows through the load and a voltage is developed
across it. During the negative half cycle, it Is reverse bias and does not conduct. Therefore, in
the negative half cycle of the supply, no current flows in the load resistor as no voltage
appears across it. Thus the dc voltage across the load is sinusoidal for the first half cycle only
and a pure a.c. input signal is converted into a unidirectional pulsating output signal.
Another type of circuit that produces the same output as a full-wave rectifier is that of
