    The document discusses different types of rectifiers that convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). It describes half-wave rectifiers, which only allow the positive half-cycle of the AC supply to pass, and full-wave rectifiers, which allow both the positive and negative half-cycles to pass. The document also outlines some common applications of half-wave and full-wave rectifiers, such as in appliances, soldering irons, radios, chargers, inverters, and car alternators.
