Why does a rectifier diode is not operated in breakdown voltage?
The breakdown voltage of a diode is the minimum voltage at which it conducts in both directions. If you have a 100-volt rectifier diode (1N4002) and you wire it into a 110v circuit, it will flow current in both directions and you'll get no rectification.
What is the nature of the output voltage of half wave and full wave rectifiers with that of the input voltage?
In a half wave rectifier voltage across load resistance is not consistent, because for positive pulse of input voltage diode work as a forward bias i,e half wave rectifier treat as closed circuit and for negative pulse of a input voltage diode work as a reverse bias so no current flow through circuit. therefore voltage output is not consistent. In full wave rectifier two diodes are used at the both side of secondary coil of transformer. due to that for positive pulse of input voltage one diode diode work as a forward bias another as a reverse bias. for negative pulse of a input voltage second diode work as a forward bias another as a reverse bias,so consistent voltage can be provided by full wave rectifier.the nature of output voltage of half wave rectifier and full wave rectifier is that it flows through with only one polarity either in positive or negative in the circuit.
What happens to the load if reverse the polarity of diode?
if you reverse the diode in a half wave rectifier, you would expect the A- Ripple to increase B- output to be less filtered C- out put polarity to be reversed D- output voltage to decrease
What isDifference between ordinary rectifier and precision rectifier?
A simple rectifier circuit uses a diode and there is a turn ON voltage for the diode. The input voltage has to exceed the turn ON voltage (0.6V for ordinary Si diode) before rectification is achieved. A precision rectifier is an active circuit using an opamp and a diode in the feedback loop. This overcomes the turn-on "knee" voltage. The op amp reduces the turn-on voltage of a diode in its feedback loop by a factor equal to the open-loop gain of the op amp. For practical op amp gains this reduces the forward voltage to a fraction of a mV, thus giving a "precision" or near ideal diode characteristic for the rectifier function.
How do you determine the size of acapacitor in a rectifier circuit?
ANSWER In rectifiers for power supplies, the capacitor size is determined by the allowable ripple on the output. This can be determined by the rate at which the capacitor is drained. Specifically, this rate is the current drawn from the capacitor. Assume a half wave rectifier made from four diodes. For part of the cycle, the output current is supplied by the rectifier diode. This is also when the capacitor is charged. While the rectifier is not supplying current -- when the input waveform has dropped below the output voltage -- the capacitor must supply the current. Then, as the input waveform rises above the capacitor voltage, the rectifier supplies the current to charge the capacitor and the output circuit.
What is the effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage?
The effect of diode voltage drop as the output voltage is that the input voltage will not be totally transferred to the output because power loss in the diode . The output voltage will then be given by: vout=(vin)-(the diode voltage drop).
What will happen when a dc source is used in front of a diode in half wave rectifier?
If the DC source biases the diode off, then the output will be zero. If it biases the diode on, then the output will be DC, with the voltage being nearly the same as the input voltage.
Why an op-amp diode rectifier called as a precision rectifier?
In a rectifier made of just diodes, the diodes have a voltage drop, resulting in a lower DC output voltage. By introducing an Op-amp, this voltage drop can be overcome. Since there is no voltage drop caused by the diodes, the rectified signal is not changed by the rectifier, so it is called a precision rectifier.

How can we Diode can be used as a rectifier?
A diode is used to stop the negative voltage swing in an AC signal, so you only get the positive portions.diode-rectifier
Does a full-wave bridge rectifier results in a full secondary volatge at the output?
No. The voltage at the output is the full secondary voltage minus two diode forward bias drops. Depending on current and the specifications of the diode, this total drop could be between 1.5 and 4 volts.
What happens to the load if reverse the polarity of diode?
if you reverse the diode in a half wave rectifier, you would expect the A- Ripple to increase B- output to be less filtered C- out put polarity to be reversed D- output voltage to decrease
What happens to the output when one of the diode becomes open in full wave bridge rectifier?
The output degrades to a half-wave rectifier.
What happens when a diode goes bad?
how can u tell if the rectifier is bad on a 2001 suzuki intruder 1500lc
What is the basic difference between a full wave bridge rectifier and a full wave center tapped rectifier?
A full-wave bridge rectifier with 4 diodes gives a dc output voltage equal to the average voltage of the whole transformer secondary. A FW rectifier with 2 diodes and a centre-tapped secondary gives an output voltage equal to the average voltage of half the secondary. If you have a 12-0-12 transformer, the bridge gives a 24 v output, while the 2-diode FW rectifier gives 12 v (approximately).
Can zener diode used as rectifier?
Yes **************************************** Yes they can but there are pitfalls. A normal diode will have a high reverse breakdown voltage. A zener has a relatively low breakdown voltage (its "zener"voltage). If a zener diode is used as a rectifier it must have a zener voltage at least twice the peak of the applied a.c.
