AIM

To construct a full wave rectifier


and show that that Alternating
Current is rectified into a Direct
Current.
INTRODUCTION
A full wave rectifier is a device which is used to rectify all the
alternating current components in an alternating supply
and make it purely a direct current. Thc two altcrnating halves
of an alternation current are rectified in a full wave rectifier
which is an advantage over a half wave rectifier. Most
electronic devices cannot withstand very high voltage or alternating
current due to its intense high power. The use of batteries
in all devices is not practical as their replacement and durability
is a huge problem as the device has to be dismantled cach time for
such a replacement. So these rectifiers are used in most of the
clectronic devices likeTVs, Radios, Chargers, and Lightings etc.

Connection details:
Connections are done as in the circuit. The A.C. supply is given to both the

input wires of the transformer and the two ends of the secondary

coil S gtven to the P side of the two diodes and the

N sideof the diodes are t wined and then connected to one en

d of thecapacitor and the other end to the center tap lead and to the

resistor.Further, the other end of capacitor with the diode connect

ion isconnected to the other end of the resistor. Connect 2 leads on both the

ends of the resistor to measure the output and this is connected to the +ve & -ve

terminals of the bulb.

WORKIN&
1st when the A.C. is supplied to the
transformer, it steps down the 230V main
supply to 6 volts. It has a capability of delivering a
current of soomA. The volts A.C. appearing
across the secondary is the RMS value and the
peak value is 8.4 volts. During the 1st half cycle of
the AC. input Diode D, is forward biased and a
current 'r flows in the circuit in the direction
SD ABEOS1. During this time diode D2 is
reverse biased. So it does not conduct any
electric current. During the next half cycle the diode
D2 is forward and D1 is reversed. Hence D2
Conducts current in the direction
S2D2ABEOS2and D. does not conduct any current.
In subsequent half cycles of the A.C current
the above processes are repeated. In both the half
cycles it is clear that current flows through the
resistor in only one direction ABE. Even though the
voltage across is unidirectional it wil still
RL

capacitor, which
and made smooth using a

filters 99% of the A.C current. A resistor is then


used to adjust the output voltage. Capacitor
the
also nearly filters all A.C components from
and resistance is adjusted for the

required output. As this is a simple circuit,
are being
only one capacitor and a resistance
used. But there will be slight factor of A.C.
current still left in the output but it is
negligible. The output Direct Current and voltage
