Half-Wave Rectifier
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law @ loop1 during
positive half cycle:
Diode is forward biased therefore an
output waveform was established
V
t
5
Full-Wave Rectifier
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law @ loop1 during
positive half cycle:
Diode 1 is forward biased while diode 2
is reversed biased therefore an output
V waveform was established
6
Bridge-Type Rectifier
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law @ loop1 during
positive half cycle:
Do the same method.......
V
Kirchhoff's Voltage Law @ loop2 during
negative half cycle:
Do the same method.......

More Equations . . .
Rearranging the previous equations: VP = Vdc + 1.736 Vr
The ripple voltage as a percentage of the dc voltage is:
Vr
% ripple x100
Vdc
The diode(s) must be rated to withstand the surge current:
