The rectifier, actually any semiconductor, is heat sensitive. You must use a low wattage soldering iron and a heat sink, such as a pair of pliers clamped around the wire between the connection and the diode, to dissipate the heat. You must also make the connection as quickly as possible.

rectifier type of instrument are those instruments which are callibrated in rms values.in order to find out the average values multiply the values with the form factor.


Which electronics circuit gives unidirectional current or wave form?

A rectifier circuit produces a unidirectional wave form.


What does the out put wave form looks in a rectifier?

A rectifier allows current to flow only in one direction. In a half-wave rectifier circuit, an input wave which oscillates between positive and negative, will 'pass through' the positive portion of the wave, and when the input is negative will output zero. A full-wave rectifier circuit, is commonly configured with 4 rectifier diodes, which allow a positive wave to output when the input wave is negative.


Why can't we implement the center tapped full wave rectifier without center tapped transformer?

A center-tapped transformer and two diodes can form a full-wave rectifier that allows both half-cycles of the AC waveform to contribute to the direct current, making it smoother than a half-wave rectifier. This form of circuit saves on rectifier diodes compared to a diode bridge, but has poorer utilization of the transformer windings. Hence we do not use centre tapping for full wave rectification.Ashish sharmaAstt. ProfessorHIET, Shahpur, kangra(H.P.)

What is the importance of ripple factor?

Ripple factor ripple factor is very important in deciding the efficiency of the rectifier .ripple factor give the total power converted AC input to the DC output. Ideal ripple factor should be zero and power factor 1. Ripple factor of half wave rectifier 1.21 and full wave rectifier is 0.48.


What is the working principle of halfwave rectifier?

Where a single diode is used as a rectifier you get halfwave rectification when the sinus wave is going positive the diode will conduct but in the negative half of the cycle it will block the current flow so the result wave form will be only the positive half that will be available for half the period of the cycle the other half will be 0 Volt


What is the advantage of using the bridge rectifier over the two diode form in the full wave rectification?

the ease of filtering their outpot voltages


What is the form factor of a half wave rectifier?

It is defined as the ratio of RMS value of output voltage to the average value of the out put voltage.


What is the function of the flux in soldering?

Flux can be in many different forms. it can be in the solder, it can be in a soft form like butter, or it can be in a pen like a tide stain stick. it is used on the solder iron and on the thing you're soldering to make a good surface for the solder to stick to. Basically it makes soldering easier, it can be done with out it.
