Full Wave Rectification                                            Rectification is   a type of rectification in which both positive and negative cycles of an alternating voltage or current are rectified. i.e. the full alternating signal is made to move in one direction by discarding the negative parts of the total cycles. Importance of Full wave rectification :                                         Full wave is rectified to deliver a continuous power to the load resistor or to the electric appliance we are interested to operate. Almost all of the appliances we use in our daily liv...

Rectification:                          The process of converting alternating current into direct current is called rectification. Rectification is important because all of the electric appliances we use in our daily life are operational and efficient when only DC current is provided to them. Rectifier:                         The device which is used for rectification is called rectification.         i.e           PN junction diode made of Silicon Types:   There are two types of rectification 1. Half wave rectification. 2. Full wave rectification.                                     lets discuss these types in detail Half wave Rectification:                     ...
