Either less ripple voltage with the same filter capacitance, or similar ripple voltage with smaller filter capacitances (and thus physically smaller filter capacitors).

What is half wave precision rectifier?
A device that converts full wave signal to half wave rectified dc signal. The device operates only for half of the input cycle during which the input signal is alllowed to pass and stops transmission of the signal for other half cycle. ok?
What is the advantages of halt wave rectifier over full wave rectifier?
Half wave rectifier makes the the sinusoidal wave uni-direction only in one half cycle and leave the other but in full wave rectifier both the cycles are made uni-directional.
How many diodes are used to make a half wave rectifier?
You use a half-wave rectifier where the system design does not require a full-wave approach. Half wave rectifier output is used for running ac motors.
What happens to the output when one of the diode becomes open in full wave bridge rectifier?
The output degrades to a half-wave rectifier.
What are the diff types of rectifier?
The various types of rectifiers are :1: half wave rectifier2: full wave rectifier3:bridge rectifiersthe rms voltage of half wave rectifier is v/sqrt(2)t
Why full wave rectifier is preffered over half wave rectifier?
Efficiency is double in case of full wave rectifier.
What effect does an open diode have on the output voltage of a half wave rectifier and on a full wave rectifier?
An open diode will result in no output from a half wave rectifier, and an open diode will cut the output of a full wave rectifier in half.

What is the advantage of half wave rectifier over full wave rectifier?
The advantage of a full wave rectifier is that it produces less ripple and the ripple has a higher frequency, making it easier to filter.The advantage of a half wave rectifier is it is simpler and less expensive as it needs fewer components.Which is best in a given application however requires making other tradeoffs that are out of scope for this question as they cannot be determined without knowing the details of the specific application. So neither is universally the best.
What is the frequency of ripple components in the output of capacitor filter?
It depends on whether or not it is a half wave or full wave rectifier. For a single phase 60 Hz rectifier, a half wave rectifier will be 60 Hz while a full wave rectifier will be 120 Hz. A three phase full wave rectifier will be 360 Hz.
Which provide more power and why full wave or half wave rectification?
full wave rectifier, because in half wave rectifier only one p-n junction diode Ans 2. In full wave rectifier both negative & positive cycles are rectified , but , in half wave rectifier only the positive or the negative cycle is rectified . That's why full wave rectifier provides more power .
What is the advantages of halt wave rectifier over full wave rectifier?
Half wave rectifier makes the the sinusoidal wave uni-direction only in one half cycle and leave the other but in full wave rectifier both the cycles are made uni-directional.

How many diodes in a bridge rectifier?
Bridge Rectifier DiodesIn a "bridge" rectifier there is 4 diodes In a "full wave" there are 2 diodes.In a "half wave" rectifier there is 1 diode.
What happens to the output when one of the diode becomes open in full wave bridge rectifier?
The output degrades to a half-wave rectifier.
Conclusions of full-wave rectifier?
A half wave rectifier is not as effective as a full wave rectifier. With a 1/2 wave, you are throwing away one hump of the sine wave...either positive or negative portion. With a full wave rectifier you get both humps...either positive or negative. The resultant effective voltage is much greater with a full wave rectifier, because there is very little time when the voltage is zero. The half wave is zero for 1/2 of the cycle.
Types of rectifier?
There are basically two types of rectifiers one is the half wave rectifier and the other is the full wave rectifies. The full wave rectifier is further classified into two types namely the bridge rectifier and the center tapped rectifier.There are also silicon controlled rectifiers nowadays.
