A: actually a full wave rectifier does not regulate. It will however follow the input minus diodes voltage drops. depending on current it is assumed to be .6 to .7 volts for silicon diodes.

∙ 12y agoA rectifier doesn't regulate voltage.
In a power supply, a rectifier changes the incoming a.c. to d.c.
Regulation may then be applied to the resultant d.c.

Why an op-amp diode rectifier called as a precision rectifier?
In a rectifier made of just diodes, the diodes have a voltage drop, resulting in a lower DC output voltage. By introducing an Op-amp, this voltage drop can be overcome. Since there is no voltage drop caused by the diodes, the rectified signal is not changed by the rectifier, so it is called a precision rectifier.
What circuitry converts an ac voltage into dc voltage?
either a rectifier or a motor generator
When transformer voltage regulation will be zero it operate at?
A transformer will operate with a voltage regulation of zero when it is not supplying a load.
What do you mean by percentage regulation in rectifiers?
A: Rectifier do not provide any regulation they merely rectify the AC. The percent regulation if any is a function of the capacitor filters and the load impressed on them
Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier for low voltage applications?
there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.
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.
How can capacitor smooth or reduce the ripple of the voltage produced by the rectifier?
when rectifier is on, the capacitor is almost transparent (it charges to the voltage provided from the rectifier) when rectifier is off, capacitor holds the peak voltage since it stored a charge during rectifier on time.
What are the Importance of of peak inverse voltage in rectifier service?
What are the Importance of of peak inverse voltage in rectifier
What is the line voltage given the load voltage is 2000v and voltage regulation is 2 percent?
The line voltage in the usa is 120V if the 2000V is for a tube in a microwave oven it generally depends on a transformer and rectifier so the line voltage will go down about 2% to retain the output
How do you reduce a ripple voltage?
You reduce ripple voltage by adding a low-pass filter. In the simplest case, you put a capacitor after the rectifier. The peak voltage will be the rectifier output voltage less the forward bias of the rectifier, while the minimum voltage will depend on current and capacitance. In a more complex case, you could use an LC filter, making the peak voltage smaller. Specifics are dependent on the power and performance requirements.
What device is also called a rectifier?
A rectifier is an electronic device that changes an AC voltage to a DC voltage.

Which type of rectifier has the greatest output voltage for the same input voltage and trasformer turns ratio?
Bridge Rectifier
What is tha purpose of a rectifier assembly?
Are you referring to the Rectifier in the Alternator? Simply, a rectifier turns the AC voltage produced my the alternator to run the electrical components in your vehicle and turns it into DC voltage to recharge your battery.The purpose of rectifier assembly is to turn the AC voltage. This is in a car.
Where is the voltage rectifier on a 1985 Suzuki Gs300 L?
The voltage rectifier is on the left side of the motorcycle just in front of the rear tire.
Is percent voltage regulation can be negative?
yes.. voltage regulation can be negative
How the capacitor removes the ripples from the rectified voltage?
During the AC cycle, the capacitor charges when the rectifier conducts, and maintains the voltage when the rectifier is not conducting.
