    Daksh Patel constructed a full wave rectifier circuit to show that alternating current can be rectified into direct current. The circuit used a transformer, diodes, capacitor, and resistor. During the positive half cycle of the AC input, one diode conducts while the other is reverse biased, and their roles reverse on the negative half cycle to rectify both halves of the AC waveform. The capacitor filters out remaining AC components to produce smoothed DC output that lights an LED, demonstrating rectification of AC to DC.

    AIM

    To construct a full wave rectifier and show that that


    Alternating Current is rectified into a Direct
    Current.
    Introduction

    A full wave rectifier is a device which is used to rectify all the


    alternating current components in an alternating supply and
    make it purely a direct current. The two alternating halves of
    an alternation current are rectified in a full wave rectifier
    which is an advantage over a half wave rectifier. Most
    electronic devices cannot withstand very high voltage or
    alternating current due to its intense high power. The use of
    batteries in all devices is not practical as their replacement and
    durability is a huge problem as the device has to be dismantled
    each time for such a replacement. So these rectifiers are used
    in most of the electronic devices like TV’s, Radios, Chargers,
    and Lightings etc.
    Materials required in the construction

     Connecting wires

     A Plug

     Single lead wire - 2m

     3 Nuts & Bolts 2 to 3cm length

     A Circuit board

     A Transformer

     A Capacitor

     A Resistor (1 K Ω)

     P-N junction diodes

     An LED

     Insulation tape, Blades, soldering wax, soldering lead,


    soldering iron & sand paper.
    Circuit Diagram

    Connection details

    Connections are done as in the circuit. The A.C. supply is given


    to both the input wires of the transformer and the two ends
    of the secondary coil is given to the P side of the two diodes
    and the N side of the diodes are twined and then connected
    to one en d of the capacitor and the other end to the centre
    tap lead and to the resistor. Further, the other end of capacitor
    with the diode connect ion is connected to the other end of
    the resistor. Connect 2 leads on both the ends of the resistor
    to measure the output and this is connected to the +ve & -ve
    terminals of the bulb.
    Working
    1st when the A.C. is supplied to the transformer, it steps down
    the 230V main supply to 6 volts. It has a capability of delivering
    a current of 500mA. The 6 volts A.C. appearing across the
    secondary is the RMS value and the peak value is 8.4 volts.
    During the 1st half cycle of the A.C. input Diode D1 is forward
    biased and a current ‘I’ flows in the circuit in the direction
    S1D1 ABEOS1. During this time diode D2 is reverse biased. So
    it does not conduct any electric current. During the next half
    cycle the diodeD2 is forward and D1 is reversed. Hence D2
    conducts current in the direction S2D2ABEOS2 and D1 does
    not conduct any current. In subsequent half cycles of the A.C
    current the above processes are repeated. In both the
    half cycles it is clear that current flows through the resistor in
    only one direction ABE. Even though the voltage across RL is
    unidirectional it will still contain a few A.C components. This is
    filtered and made smooth using a capacitor, which filters 99%
    of the A.C current. A resistor is then used to adjust the output
    voltage. Capacitor also nearly filters all A.C components from
    the supply and resistance is adjusted for the required output.
    As this is a simple circuit, only one capacitor and a resistance
    are being used. But there will be slight factor of A.C. current
    still left in the output but it is negligible. The output Direct
    Current and voltage light up the LED.

    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

    I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my physics


    mentor Mr Anish Pillai, for his vital support, guidance and
    encouragement throughout the year.

    I am grateful to my parents whose blessings and wishes have


    gone a long way in the completion of this arduous task.

    I thank my friends and batch mates, without their prompt


    support my efforts would have been in vain.

    THANK YOU ALL!!
