We can use it as a rectifier and switch


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.


What are the advantages and dis advantage of full-wave bridge rectifier compared with two diodes rectifier?

in full wave bridge rectifier, the input and out put voltages are same but in case of two diode rectifier the input and output voltages can be different as per requirement a there is a transformer in the circuit. The former is lighter and the later is heavier.

What are advantages of bridge rectifier?

A bridge rectifier will rectify both halves of a sine wave and give "continuous output" through 360 degrees of the input. Oh, and you don't need a center-tapped transformer to use it.


Which rectifier has good efficiency?

bridge rectifier is the best rectifier.


What is the advantages of using the bridge rectifier over the center tapped rectifier?

you only use half the number of windings in the bridge comparing it to the center tapped , and in the bridge rectifier the peak inverse voltage that a diode must be able to sustain without break down is half of that in the center tapped PIV per diode: center tapped: 2Vm : bridge : 1Vm

What is single phase Controlled rectifier?

such a control rectifier that control or rectifier single phase. for that purpose we used SCR that is called single phase controlled rectifier.


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 when one of the diodes is removed from the bridge rectifier?

Nothing will happen to the diode but that rectifier effectively becomes a half-wave rectifier.


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.
