POWER CONVERSION CONCEPT:
EXAMPLE
• Supply :
50Hz, 240V RMS (340V peak).
Customer need DC voltage for welding
purpose, say.
• Sine-wave supply gives zero DC
component!
• We can use simple half-wave rectifier.
A fixed
• DC voltage is now obtained. This is a
simple PE system.
Average output voltage:
Single Phase Half-Wave Rectifier
CONVERSION CONCEPT
• What if customer wants variable DC voltage?
-More complex circuit using SCR is required.
