Full Wave Rectifiers

This electronics video provides a basic introduction into full wave rectifiers which converts a sine wave AC signal into a pulsating DC signal using two diodes, a load resistor, and a center tap transformer.

best of the best . U ARE LITERALLY SAVING MY LIFE FOR 2 YEARS.

[dardale]

Your awesome! Good graphics and explain it slow enough to understand what’s happening with good calculations. You remind viewers that conventional flow is being used and what Electron flow is. Thank you

[gielsha]

Your videos are getting me through my degree. Thank you so much for making this content. I am beyond grateful.

[tanushrih]

You're the best teacher ever sir. Really.

[daniellchukwu]

Ain't nobody telling me that you are not single-handedly the greatest youtuber on earth

[eggxecution]

Am I the only one who finds it funny when I hear those calculator sounds when he's inputting those values every time? I find it cute LOL XD Anwyays I love this guy helped me a lot!

[erichutson]

These videos are single handedly getting me through solid state class. Thank you

[oscarmulelema]

I love your lecturers sir we thank God for you .🙂🙂🥰

[gobusamangmoleme]

Mfethu, you are a beast! Thank you so much, you are a God sent to all tertiary students!

[blackshadow]

Dude. I don't know how to thank you but thank you.

[tommymorrisson]

Have you ever thought about doing programming lessons? C++, VHDL, etc. Well get to it, I need you to save me :(

[scorpsjunknstuff]

no way my man just explained how to do 120/5

[alirehman]

excellant teaching method, clear understanding of each and every step like it. thanks

[eggxecution]

just realized the full and half wave formulas are listed below this one is solid

[hooikuanzheng]

you have to divide the peak voltage by 2, as it is center tap.

[ssg]

In the question 120 Vac is Rms value, so when we multiply it with root 2 we get peek value not the Vdc value. In order to find Vdc=Vavarage we have to divide Vpeak value to pi, which is equal do Vdc value.

[douglaslieberman]

On the center tap transformer, if I am not mistaken in a full wave rectifier the waveform is 180 degrees out of phase, which means the D1 and D2 turn on, on both positive swings of the sinewave resulting in 2 positive halves on the output.

[douglaslieberman]

Because the waveforms are 180 degrees out of phase we can have a hot and neutral line or return which is 180 degrees out of phase. That means the relationship between a V.O.M which measures peak to peak value is measuring in digital form or analog form from HOT line to NEUTRAL or Black line to white line we can so measure 120 VAC in phase, proved on an oscilloscope we will measure peak to peak value in phase as 60 +VP to 60 -VP right in phase. That relationship of the sinewave is on one line and to the return in a circuit. That shows the phase loop.

[fitrikarinaindriani]

Thank you . Finally i can understand that

[timalexander]

Thus vid really helped me with a course I'm on. Thanks 🙂
