Why cant you implement centre tapped full wave rectifier without centre tapped transformer?
The center tapped full wave rectifier depends on two similar windings, each 180 degrees out of phase with respect to each other. You are only going to get that with a center tapped winding. Without the center tap, you need four diodes.
Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier for low voltage applications?
there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.
. Which type of full-wave rectifier has the greater output voltage for the same input voltage and transformers turn ratio?
well when you see on basis of output voltage the centre tapped transformers is .
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).
What is the advantage of using the centre tapped full wave rectifier?
By using a center tap, with the tap connected to ground you can use one winding for the positive AC swing and the other winding (both relative to the center-tap) for the negative swing. Thus, when the secondary windings can be connected to the AC inputs of a full-wave-bridge rectifier to harvest a bi-polar DC power source. i.e. - a positive DC voltage 'rail' AND a negative DC voltage rail, say for example you have a 24VAC center tapped secondary of a 110VAC transformer. With a full-wave bridge, the center tap becomes the circuit 'ground' (aka 'return') in a DC circuit.
What is the advantages of using the bridge rectifier over the center tapped rectifier?
you only use half the number of windings in the bridge comparing it to the center tapped , and in the bridge rectifier the peak inverse voltage that a diode must be able to sustain without break down is half of that in the center tapped PIV per diode: center tapped: 2Vm : bridge : 1Vm

Who is better among centre tapped rectifier and bridge rectifier?
It depends on what you're doing and what you have available. If you can find a good center tapped transformer with the target voltage, that will save you 2 diodes. If you're going for the "quick and dirty" solution and you don't have a center tapped transformer, a bridge rectifier is an excellent way to get dirty DC. ANSWER: The center tap will offer a .7 v advantage over the bridge. Be aware that power output does not change just the voltage increases
Why can't we implement the center tapped full wave rectifier without center tapped transformer?
A center-tapped transformer and two diodes can form a full-wave rectifier that allows both half-cycles of the AC waveform to contribute to the direct current, making it smoother than a half-wave rectifier. This form of circuit saves on rectifier diodes compared to a diode bridge, but has poorer utilization of the transformer windings. Hence we do not use centre tapping for full wave rectification.Ashish sharmaAstt. ProfessorHIET, Shahpur, kangra(H.P.)
Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier?
it is more preferable over center tapped rectifiers because you dont have to use special centre tapped transformer that has larger secondary windings thereby reducing the size and cost it also has another advantage by the use of 4 diodes i.e. peak voltage sustained by each diode is half of that sustained by the diodes in center tapped system that uses only 2 diode. thus lifespan of bridge type rectifier is more.

Is there any application where center tap rectifier is preferred over bridge rectifier?
For a center tapped full wave rectifier transformer secondary gives a voltage that is 2Vm. For a bridge rectifier it is Vm.
Is 2 diode without center taped can befull wave rectifier?
No. For a full wave rectifier, you need two diodes and a center tapped secondary, or you need four diodes and a non-center tapped secondary.
Why we you use center tapping in rectifier?
because we can get two different value at outpit.if we cosider tree point at secondery side of rectifier of 100volt that is A,B and C than we can get 50 vol bitween A and C.and we can get 100 volt bitween A and B.so no need to use two different value rectifier of 50 and 100 valt
Why to use four diodes when two diodes also can serve the purpose in bridge rectifier?
Four diode rectifier not require a center tapped transformer.
