During +ve half cycle the diode is forward biased.
Therefore a current IL flows through load resistor RL.
In forward bias ,the voltage drop across the diode is
very small (0.7V for
Si and 0.3V for Ge).
For practical purposes we assume that the diode is ideal so the
voltage drop is zero

Diode Ratings
1. Current Handling Capacity.
2. Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV ): It is
the largest reverse voltage that is
expected to appear across the
diode. Usually, diodes are selected
which have VZ at least 50 % greater
than PIV.

Filter Circuits
The output of a rectifier is not purely
dc. It also has some ac components,
called ripples.
The ripples are maximum in half-wave
rectifier, and are less in full-wave
rectifier
Filter circuit converts pulsating output
of a rectifier into a steady dc level.
Filters simply smoothen out the ripples.
