 THEORY SIMULATION REMARK

The output
voltage of a half-
wave rectifier is
inherently lower
than the input
CIRCUIT voltage due to
these factors:
Diode Voltage

across the diode

during
conduction.
Half-Cycle
Utilization:
OUTPUT
Only one half of
the AC input
cycle is used.

 A bridge
rectifier
produces full-
wave
rectification,
meaning the
output
waveform has

FIGURE 5 FIGURE 6

The output
voltage is
slightly lower
than the input's
peak voltage due
to diode voltage
drops and circuit
resistance.

OUTPUT This behavior is
