Full-wave rectifiers are commonly used in power supplies to convert AC to DC, providing the steady DC voltage needed for electronic devices. There are two main types of full-wave rectifiers: Center-Tapped Full-Wave Rectifier and Bridge Rectifier. A Bridge Rectifier uses four diodes in a bridge configuration to convert both the positive and negative halves of the AC input into DC. ▶️ During the positive half-cycle of the AC waveform, diodes D1 and D2 are forward-biased, allowing current to flow t
