Single-Phase Half-Wave Rectifier
Performance Parameters

• Average value of the output voltage, Vdc


• Average value of the output current, Idc
• Output dc power, Pdc
• Pdc = VdcIdc
• rms value of the output voltage, Vrms
• Output ac power, Pac
• Pac = VrmsIrms
Performance Parameters
(continued)
• Efficiency, η
• η = Pdc/Pac
• Effective (rms) value of the ac component of the output voltage, V ac
• Vac = Vrms2 – Vdc2
• Form factor, FF
• FF = Vrms/Vdc
• Ripple factor, RF
• RF = Vac/Vdc
Performance Parameters (continued)
