Finding DC circuit using
half-wave rectifier circuit
vp
VDC= VP/π t
Vp = √2 Vrms
Half-wave rectifier is not efficient
since half of the input signal is
cropped…..
There is a solution…
Full wave rectification

When the source is positive,
the current follows the route
where D2 and D3 are ON but
D1 and D4 are OFF. The
current enters the positive
terminal of resistor, therefore
Vo is positive.
