How Does a Rectifier Work?

[url=http://www.chinaevcharger.com/rectifier/]Rectifier[/url], device that converts alternating

electric current into direct current. It may be an electron tube (either a vacuum or a gaseous type), vibrator, solid-state

device, or mechanical device. Direct current is necessary for the operation of many devices such as laptop computers,

televisions, and certain power tools.

If only one polarity of an alternating current is used to produce a pulsating direct current, the process is called

half-wave rectification. When both polarities are used, producing a continuous train of pulses, the process is called full-

wave rectification.
