In a half wave rectifier voltage across load resistance is not consistent, because for positive pulse of input voltage diode work as a forward bias i,e half wave rectifier treat as closed circuit and for negative pulse of a input voltage diode work as a reverse bias so no current flow through circuit. therefore voltage output is not consistent. In full wave rectifier two diodes are used at the both side of secondary coil of transformer. due to that for positive pulse of input voltage one diode diode work as a forward bias another as a reverse bias. for negative pulse of a input voltage second diode work as a forward bias another as a reverse bias,so consistent voltage can be provided by full wave rectifier.the nature of output voltage of half wave rectifier and full wave rectifier is that it flows through with only one polarity either in positive or negative in the circuit.

How do rectifier circuits stabilize the output voltage when the input voltage is subject to fluctuations?

Rectifiers don't "stabilize the output voltage" of rectifier circuits when input voltage fluctuates. The rectifiers just rectify the input, and the output will fluctuate as the input does. Another form of "conditioning" of the rectified output is needed to address the issue of fluctuations. And we use the term regulation to talk about the effect of "stabilizing" an output voltage. Through regulation, the output will be resistant to changes in voltage when changes in the input voltage occur.


Why does amplifier gain reduce?

Since we know that the amplifier gain is given by A=Output voltage/input voltage (where A is the amplifier gain) So, it can be written as output voltage=A*input voltage, so when the output part increases gain increases but when input part increases gain decreases


What is voltage gain?

Voltage gain is the ratio of the output voltage of an amplifier to its input voltage.


What are linear wave Shaping circuits?

if a sinusoidal voltage is applied to linear circuit the output voltage is also sinusoidal in nature as far as the waveform is concerned the amplitude of input signal may change and there may be phase displacement between input voltages and output voltages


What is wattage rating of microwave oven transformer also hi voltage from secondary?

The rating is about 1500W. This is for both the input and the output. Output voltage is usually 2,000 volts. Divide watts by input volts to get input current. And divide watts by output voltage to get output current. -Joe

Can you say which bridge rectifier voltage has the highest out put voltage?

A: NO the power output will be higher. Bridge rectifiers do not provide more voltage output it just add more power by rectifying both positive and negative voltage of the AC input


What is the peak inverse voltage in center tap rectifiers?

twice of input voltage


What determines the output voltage and the current of a transformer?

The ratio of output windings to input windings determines the ratio of output voltage to input voltage. The ratio of current is the inverse.


How do rectifiers and transformers work in a PC power supply?

There is no transformer used in PC power supply. There is rectifier used to rectify or convert AC input voltage into DC output voltage.Transformer based rectifier produces some spikes at the output DC voltage, hencethey uses SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) to avoid spikes to the output DC voltage and get a smooth DC voltage.

What will be input and output current of 10 KVA 3 phase UPS?

It will depend on input & output voltage, if voltage is same current will remain same


How do you calculate the input voltage when output voltage is 30V peak to peak?

You do not specify, in your question, what the 'input' device is.


What is the Difference between linear IC and digital IC?

Both linear ICs and nonlinear ICs has an output voltage which is dependent on the input voltage. However, the difference is that linear ICs produce an output voltage which increases or decreases at a "fixed rate" relative to the input voltage. Nonlinear ICs do not do this. A voltage regulator may be considered nonlinear because as you increase the input voltage the output will climb at the same rate (just like linear ICs), however, once the input voltage reaches a particular level point, the output no longer increases as you increase the input. This is at the point where regulation begins. The nonlinear IC no longer changes its output at a fixed rate relative to the input.
