Disadvantages:
DC output voltage is discontinuous and contain
harmonics.
Input current is not sinusoidal

Single-Phase Full-Wave
Rectifiers
Two types of full wave rectifiers exist:
That formed with a center-tapped transformer and
two diodes and
That formed with or without a transformer and
four diodes, also known as a bridge rectifier.
