A rectifier is a device that is used to "change" (rectify) some kind of alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). There is more to the story, but basically the rectifier is a "one-way" device that will permit current to flow though it in only one direction. That way one or more of these devices can be used in different curcuit configurations to change an AC input into a DC output.

What is the effect of an RL circuit in half wave rectifier?
The effect of an RL circuit in half wave rectifier is that the voltage output wave forms for current and voltage will be modified .
What is the peak inverse voltage rating of diode in bridge rectifier?
2x the peak supply voltage!
How can we Diode can be used as a rectifier?
A diode is used to stop the negative voltage swing in an AC signal, so you only get the positive portions.diode-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.
4 What is the difference between a transformer and a rectifier Which are found in a PC power supply?
A rectifier is a device that converts alternating current to direct current. A transformer is a device that changes the ratio fo current to voltage. A rectifier is found in a PC power supply.
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 device is also called a rectifier?
A rectifier is an electronic device that changes an AC voltage to a DC voltage.
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 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.
Which type of rectifier has the greatest output voltage for the same input voltage and trasformer turns ratio?
Bridge Rectifier
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.
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.
Which rectifier is not directly operated from mains?
Because , the high voltage can destroy the diodes used in the rectifier .
What is voltage regulation of a rectifier?
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.
Can use rectifier in high voltage?
Sure, as long as it's rated for that voltage.
What circuitry converts an ac voltage into dc voltage?
either a rectifier or a motor generator
