RECTIFIER
![Page 2: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
RECTIFIER IS A DEVICE THAT CAN CONVERT AC IN TO DC
SO THERE ARE TWO QUESTIONS
WHY WE NEED TO CONVERT A.C.
IN TO D.C.
AND WHAT IS A.C. AND WHAT IS
D.C.
![Page 3: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
ALTERNATING CURRENT IS THAT CURRENT WHICH
DIRECTION REVERSE PERIODICALLY
AND
IN DIRECT CURRENT IS THAT CURRENT IN WHICH THE
DIRECTION OF CURRENT REMAIN SAME

1.Step Down Transformer
The function of step down transformer is to convert high A.C. Voltage(230 V) to Low A.C. Voltage (15V,12V etc)Because we can't apply high ac voltage to diode directly
2. Semiconductor Diode
Building Blocks of Rectifier
![Page 5: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Diode is a semiconductor switching device Which has two terminal
1. Anode
2. Cathode
Diode can be conncted in any circuit either in forward bias or reverse bias

![Page 7: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
FORWARD BIAS: When anode is connected with +ve terminal of
battery and cathode is connected with –ve terminal of Battery Diode is
in forward bias and its resistance drop down to 0(r = 0) and it behaves
like a close switch
![Page 8: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
REVERSE BIAS: When anode is connected with -ve terminal of battery and cathode is connected with +ve terminal of Battery Diode is in reverse bias and its resistance rises up to infiniteand it behaves like an open switch
![Page 9: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
AC Voltage is first stepped down then applied to the diode
During +ve Half Cycle Point A Will be at positive potential whereas point B will be at –ve Potential
Diode D Will be in Forward Bias and behave like a close switch
And positive half cycle will be passed as it is As Shown in fig

During Negative Half Cycle Point A
will be At Negative Potential As
Compared to Point B So Diode is in
Reverse Bias and Behaves Like an
Open Switch and negative half cycle
does not passes to the load
resistance

NOW WORKING OF RECTIFIER
![Page 12: Half wave rectifier](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100518/559429421a28abd95a8b45cd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
DURING POSITIVE HALF CYCLE DIODE IS IN FORWARD BIAS AND
BEHAVES LIKE A CLOSED SWITCH AND POSITIVE HALF CYCLE PASSES
TO THE LOAD RESISTANCE
DURING NEGATIVE HALF CYCLE DIODE IS IN REVERSE BIAS AND
BEHAVES LIKE AN OPEN SWITCH AND NEGATIVE HALF CYCLE DOES NOT
PASSES TO THE LOAD RESISTANCE
IN THIS WAY HALF WAVE RECTIFIER CONVERT HALF CYCLE OF AN
A.C. VOLTAGE TO THE D.C. VOLTAGE
