    The document describes single phase half-wave uncontrolled rectifiers. It explains that in a half-wave rectifier, the AC voltage is converted to DC voltage in only half of the AC cycle. During the positive half-cycle, the diode is forward biased and allows current to flow through the load. During the negative half-cycle, the diode is reverse biased so no current flows. The half-wave rectifier is simple and inexpensive but produces a low quality DC voltage with a smaller average value than other rectifier types. Graphs and equations are provided showing the voltage and current waveforms for the positive and negative half-cycles. Additional sections describe uncontrolled rectifiers with RL and R-E loads, including circuit operations and mathematical

    Single Phase Uncontrolled Rectifiers

    Single Phase Half-wave Rectifiers


    Diode Half-Wave Rectifier
    A single-phase half-wave uncontrolled rectifier is a circuit that
    converts AC voltage to DC voltage in half a cycle of the
    mains voltage. In a half-cycle rectifier circuit, the power
    source will be connected in series with the load through
    Diode.

    Working of half-wave uncontrolled rectifier: in the


    positive half-cycle, the diode is forward biased. The diode
    works as a closed switch, allowing current to flow through
    the load. In the negative half-cycle, the diode is reverse
    biased. The diode works as an open switch, so no current
    flows in the circuit.
    Types of Rectifiers

    Single Phase Half-wave Rectifiers
    A half-wave rectifier is the most basic of the rectifier
    circuits. The advantage of this circuit is that it is easy
    and inexpensive. The disadvantage of this circuit is
    low voltage quality, and the average voltage will be
    smaller.

    Single Phase Half-wave Rectifiers
    In the positive half cycle Vs > 0: the diode will be forward
    biased. Diode conducts as a closed switch. Therefore, the
    voltage across the load R equals the supply voltage Vs:
    Vo = Vs. The output waveform of the current, in this case,
    is the same as the voltage waveform.

    In the negative half cycle Vs <0: the diode will be reverse


    biased. Diode don’t allow the current through it. So no
    current flows in this circuit. The output voltage Vo = 0V.

    For the mathematical derivations, refer to the class notes

    IRMS and average current IAVG through the device.
