Electronic Devices Lab report

1- Half wave rectifier:

Introduction:

Half-wave rectifiers convert AC voltage to DC voltage. In a half wave rectifier circuit, the transformation
is carried out by a single diode. An AC voltage waveform can only travel through one half of a half wave
rectifier, which blocks the other half of the waveform.

Circuit diagram:

Discussion:

During the positive half-cycle : the diode is forward biassed , and it conducts, allowing current to pass
through the load resistor to produce the output voltage.

During the negative half cycle : the diode is reversed and does not conduct ; as a result, no current flows
through the circuit and the output voltage across the load resistor is zero.

2- Full wave bridge rectifier:

Introduction:

The bridge rectifier is a kind of full-wave rectifier that requires four or more diodes in a bridge circuit
design to convert alternating (AC) current to direct (DC) current.

Circuit diagram:

Discussion:

During the positive half cycle: when an input AC signal is delivered across the bridge rectifier, the diodes
D1 and D2 are forward biassed and allow current while D3 and D4 are reverse biassed and block current.

During the negative half cycle: diodes D3 and D4 are forward biassed and permit electric current, whilst
diodes D1 and D2 are reverse biassed and obstruct it.

3-Clamping circuit :

Introduction:

A clamper circuit is an electrical circuit that shifts the DC value of a signal and sets either the signal's
positive or negative peak values to a specified value. Clamper circuits will increase the AC input signal by
adding the DC component, whether positive or negative. It moves the signal in either a positive or
negative direction.

Circuit diagram:

Discussion:

During the positive half cycle :The diode is reverse biassed , thus the input signal is shown exactly as it is
at the output. The capacitor is not charged at this time, and there is no clamping.

During the negative half cycle : the diode gets forward biassed and begins to conduct , during this half
cycle, the capacitor charges to its maximum input potential.

4- Clipping circuits:

Introduction:

Clipper circuits are those that delete or clip off a segment of an input signal without distorting the
remainder of the waveform.

Circuit diagram:

Discussion:

Positive half cycle: As a result, the diode becomes reverse biassed and operates like an open switch. As a
result, there is no current flowing through the load resistor, and there is no voltage across it, therefore
V0 is zero.

Negative half cycle: As a result of this, the diode is forward biassed and behaves like a closed switch. As
a result, the applied input voltage will be exactly identical to the voltage across the load resistor when it
fully appears at the output V0. (V0 = Vi)
