This simulation illustrates the working of a Full Wave Rectifier circuit using a center-tapped transformer and two diodes. The waveform at the top shows how both halves of the AC input are converted into positive pulses at the output, effectively doubling the frequency of the ripple. The circuit ensures that during both positive and negative cycles of the AC input, current flows through the load in the same direction, providing full-wave rectification. #ElectronicsEducation #electronicsrd #recti

This simulation demonstrates a Full Wave Rectifier circuit using four diodes arranged in a bridge configuration. The input is a 10 Hz AC signal, and the output across the 1 kΩ resistor shows a rectified waveform where both halves of the AC signal are converted into pulsating DC. The graph above displays the input, output voltage, and current, clearly showing the full-wave rectification effect with continuous positive cycles. #ElectronicsEducation #electronicsrd #Electronics #rectifier | Electron

This simulation illustrates the working of a bridge rectifier for each half cycle of the AC input. In the positive half cycle, two diagonally opposite diodes are forward-biased, allowing current to flow through the load in one direction. In the negative half cycle, the other two diodes conduct, again directing the current through the load in the same direction. The animation clearly shows which diodes are active during each half cycle and traces the corresponding current path, effectively demons

This simulation compares three simple half-wave rectifier arrangements and shows how a diode plus different smoothing networks shape the output from a 100 Hz AC source into a DC-like voltage. Top circuit: a single diode feeding a 100 kΩ load. The diode conducts only on positive half-cycles, so the load sees isolated pulses (pulsating DC) at the input frequency; average output is much lower than peak and contains large ripple. Middle circuit: diode 100 nF capacitor in parallel with the 100 kΩ loa

This simulation demonstrates the working of a full-wave rectifier using a center-tapped transformer and two diodes. The AC input signal from the transformer’s secondary winding is divided into two equal halves, each feeding one diode. During the positive half cycle, the upper diode conducts, allowing current through the load resistor in one direction. In the negative half cycle, the lower diode conducts, again passing current through the load in the same direction. As a result, both halves of th
