Bridge diodes are generally used in a bridge rectifier to convert AC into DC.
It removes the remaining AC ripple after the rectifier, using capacitors (to bypass it to ground) and/or inductors (to block it).
Most of the circuits comprising of electronic components run on dc supply.. As DC supply is not available directly for us, we use either 230/12V or 230/18V transformer to stepdown the available 230V (in some countries it is 110v) and then convert it into dc using a rectifier. As a bridge rectifier is more efficient than a conventional full wave rectifier, about 81.2%, it is widely used in such type of circuits.
A Rectifier converts Alternating current into Direct current
You probably mean "... where there should be a DC output ?",and the answer is "No. They don't work in reverse.".
The AC supply would have to be changed to DC supply.. This would be done with the use of a rectifier. It would be done usually with a full wave rectifier.
ac supply is given and then in the circuit rectifier converts ac to dc
By using a three-phase rectifier.
No. Only Transformer could not be used for DC supply.If yoy need to have DC out put,then rectifier unit required .
There is no transformer used in PC power supply. There is rectifier used to rectify or convert AC input voltage into DC output voltage.Transformer based rectifier produces some spikes at the output DC voltage, hencethey uses SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) to avoid spikes to the output DC voltage and get a smooth DC voltage.
Typically to convert AC to DC as part of a power supply.
A transformer does not use a filter. You may be asking about the use of a filter in a power supply. A power supply uses a filter to change pulsating DC from the rectifier into smooth DC for the circuits that the power supply powers.
The power supply in most cars is DC. The alternator may produce AC power, but it is then run through a rectifier, providing DC power.
i think in case of dc supply there will not be any induction
it will work as a rectifier . because the AC current to be rectified will not be effected by this change. the out put DC polarity will be changed.
The primary purpose of a rectifier is to derive DC power from an AC supply. Virtually all electronic devices require DC, so rectifiers find uses inside the power supplies of virtually all electronic equipment.
It should be the rms value of your supply.
