FULL WAVE BRIDGE RECTIFIER
THEORY
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating
current (AC), which periodically reverses direction, to
direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction.
The process is known as rectification.
Rectifiers have many uses, but are often found serving as
components of DC power supplies and high-voltage direct
current power transmission systems. Rectification may
serve in roles other than to generate direct current for use
as a source of power. As noted, detectors of radio signals
serve as rectifiers. In gas heating systems flame
rectification is used to detect presence of flame.
The simple process of rectification produces a type of DC
characterized by pulsating voltages and currents (although
still unidirectional). Depending upon the type of end-use,

Full-wave rectification
A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input
waveform to one of constant polarity (positive or
negative) at its output. Full-wave rectification converts
both polarities of the input waveform to DC (direct
current), and yields a higher mean output voltage. Two
diodes and a center tapped transformer, or four diodes in a
bridge configuration and any AC source (including a
transformer without center tap), are needed. Single
semiconductor diodes, double diodes with common
cathode or common anode, and four-diode bridges, are
manufactured as single components.
Working of Bridge
Rectifier
During the positive input half cycle terminal M of the
secondary is positive and N is negative. Diode D1 and D3
becomes forward bias where as D2 and D4 are reversed
bias. Hence the current flows along point M, E, A, B, C, F
and N producing a drop across RL.
During the negative input half cycle secondary terminal N
becomes positive and M is negative. Now D2 and D4 are
forward bias and D1 and D3 are reversed bias. Now the
