VIVA QUESTIONSDEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS &COMMUNICATION ENGINEERINGVIVA-QUESTIONS-ANSWER1.DefineRectifier?
Rectifier is a Electronic circuit which converts Alternating signalinto pulcating D.C
2.Define Full waveRectifier?
This rectifier consists of center rapped transformer and two diodes. The center tap is grounded. [i.e]its potential is maintained at Zero.
3.Define construction of Full waveRectifier?
The Anodes of diode1 and diode2 are connected to the terminal A and B of the transformersecondary respectively. The cathode of 2 diodesconnected to the load.
4.Whatarethe meritsofFull WaveRectifier?
Ripple factor is low when compared to the Halt Wave Rectifier.
5.What is the major disadvantages of Full Wave Rectifier?
Here center tapped transformers are used so, the cost inhigh.
6.what are thefutures of Full WaveRectifier [center-tap]?
