 HALF WAVE RECTIFIER
• Definition: A Half-Wave Rectifier is a device
that converts only one half of the applied ac
signal into pulsating dc. The other half of the
applied ac signal gets suppressed by the
rectifier circuit.
• A half wave rectifier circuit uses only a single
diode, due to the unidirectional current flow
property of the diode.

 The AC supply to be rectified is generally given
through a transformer. The transformer is used to
step down or step up the main supply voltage as
per the requirement. It also isolates the rectifier
from power lines and thus reduces the risk of
electric shock.
