ABSTRACT

We decide of how a diode is utilized Half wave

rectifier and a full wave rectifier circuit. We
confirm it by using the oscilloscope and multi-
meter. First we set-up the power supply to the
circuit board at that point associate the oscilloscope.
We came up an AC current in the info and DC
current to the yield. At that point we get the
Voltage, RMS, Peak Voltage, and Average Voltage
in both yield and info.

KEYWORDS

•Anode - the positively charged electrode

by which the electrons leave a device.

•Cathode - the negatively charged electrode
by which electrons enter an electrical device.
•Rectification - conversion of alternating
current to a pulsating direct current
On the off chance that there's a bridge rectifier
where all the diode associated, at that point we
will have a Full-Wave Rectification.

•Full Wave Rectification - conversion of ac

to dc using both half cycles of the ac voltage.

•Half Wave Rectification - conversion of ac

to dc using only half cycles of the ac voltage.

At First, We adjusted the power source to

positive-negative 15Vdc but the circuit board
limits only up to 11Vdc. In this step, we didn’t

the GENERATOR BUFFER as shown below: input voltage that the diode is under test
forward biased

RESULTS
We set up the material needed, oscilloscope,
multi-meter, power supply and circuit block.
We first test the oscilloscope whether it’s
functioning or reading the input terminal. And
then we test the Figure 1 and Figure 2.

Third, we setup the oscilloscope channels 1

and 2 for value indicated in the manual using
X10 probes. We connected the channel 1 to the
GENERATOR BUFFER and connected the
channel 2 across the secondary terminals of T1.
We measured the voltage readings displayed in
channel 1 and we determined if it’s a step-down
or step-up voltage relationship. Fourth,
referring to the figure below, we ensured that
the common lead of the test probe is at the
negative terminal of the bridge circuit.

Using the X10 probe on oscilloscope, we

adjusted the output of the external sine wave
generator signal. The position test waveform is Figure 1. Half-wave diode circuit 2

CONCLUSION
We discovered that a diode is an entirely
adaptable electronic gadget as it could likewise
be utilized during the time spent amendment.
Knowing the standards of biasing is important
to comprehend the correction procedure. There
are two yield we get, a half-wave rectifier and
full-wave rectifier. The distinctions is that the
full-wave rectifier is utilized as a scaffold
rectifier association where every one of the 4
diode associated one another.
