Best Answer

An amplifier makes a (generally larger) copy of a signal or voltage.

A rectifier allows current to pass in only one direction.

What is the difference between amplifier and rectifier?

A Re generator is a a circuit that repeatedly supplies current to a memory or display device. A amplifier increases the amperage of a signal or current.


Solidstate rectifier versus tube rectifier in guitar amplifiers?

A: There is no difference much in performance. But if a tube is replaced by a solid state rectifier the gain would be approximately 100 volts and assuming the DC caps are rated for this higher voltage it would be OK. Since there is higher voltages the dynamic of the amplifier will change accordingly.


How are is a transformer and a rectifier different?

A transformer changes the VOLTAGE of AC current (AC to AC). A rectifier changes AC to DC.

Which rectifier has good efficiency?

bridge rectifier is the best rectifier.


Significance of the ripple voltage on a rectifier circuit?

A: It really depends on the load requirement . Example driving a relay hi ripple with no capacitor is an advantage in efficiency for a sensitive amplifier it will cause mayhem with the performance


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 type of transistor is used in amplifier?

Depends on the type of amplifier. There are a lot of different circuits of amplifiers and each one of them use proper transistors, that works better for that circuit. Moreover, on every stage of the amplifier are used different transistors as well.


Why we you use center tapping in rectifier?

because we can get two different value at outpit.if we cosider tree point at secondery side of rectifier of 100volt that is A,B and C than we can get 50 vol bitween A and C.and we can get 100 volt bitween A and B.so no need to use two different value rectifier of 50 and 100 valt


What exactly is a combo amp and how is it different from a normal guitar amplifier?

A combo amplifier for a guitar contains a normal guitar amplifier and one to four speakers. A normal guitar amplifier does not contain speakers, but is able to send the signal to a speaker cabinet.


Why mostly a transister is used as amplifier than diode?

A diode is not an amplifier. It is a rectifier with asymmetrical voltage breakdown voltages. Usually the forward voltage is around 0.6V to 0.7V (silicon), and the reverse voltage is smaller than breakdown voltage, which is much higher. A transistor can be used as an amplifier, by taking into account the fact that the voltage breakdown curves vary, usually collector-emitter, as a function of some other current, usually base-emitter, but this depends on the class of the amplifier and whether or not the transistor is driven into saturation.
