This lab seeks to illustrate the fundamental operation of uncontrolled rectifier circuits. The waveforms associated with these circuits are visualized using simulation and experimentation. The circuit ...

Abstract: Switching power supply in computers and motor drive systems operate by rectifying the input AC line voltage using diodes and filtering it with large electrolytic capacitors. This results in ...

Abstract: The purpose of this work is to maximize the efficiency of rectifier topologies used for wireless power transmission system operating at 2.4 GHz. This paper particularly presents the design ...

Rectifier is an electronic device with covert the alternating current to unidirectional current, in other words rectifier converts the A.C voltage to D.C voltage. The half rectifier consist a step ...

The diode is a fundamental component you must understand if you want to grow your electronics prowess. So today, we’re going to take a quick look at what a diode is, then look at 4½ uses for a diode ...

[Hales] has been on a mission for a while to make his own diodes and put them to use and now he’s succeeded with diodes made of sodium bicarbonate and water, aluminum tape and soldered copper. By ...
