1 Overview of the experiment

1.1 Aim of the experiment
In this experiment we have to simulate 2 type of improved half wave rectifier
and one full wave rectifier and notice plots

1.2 Methods
analysis circuit by ngspice simulation and draw them first on xcircuit and
then implement all that circuit and analysis the result.

2 Design
in question 1 for simulating circuit at first i assigned name to every node of
circuit and than write ngspice code. For 2nd question ie. full wave rectifier
circuit i first made a sub-circuit of half wave rectifer-B and than assigned
node and after that simulate the code

4 Experimental results
4.1 Half-wave Precision Rectifier
the comparison between both circuit of first question is–

1. in first part The circuit rectifies only negative input.

2. in second part The circuit rectifies only positive input

4.2 Full-wave Precision Rectifier

The circuit rectifies both positive and negative input, i.e., Vo = |Vi |

5 Experiment completion status

both experiment completed successfully.
