RECTIFIERS
The rectifiers are those which converts a.c voltage to
d.c voltage.some of the rectifiers are
half wave rectifier{H.W.R}
full wave rectifier{F.W.R}
bridge rectifier{B.R}

Answer / mohit sehgal
rectifiers are the simple electronic devices which are used to convert AC voltage to DC voltage.
they are used in various fields such as transformers, filters, daily need devices to convert AC supply to DC supply and also in fire filter circuits.

Answer / raghavendran
It is a electronic device,used for the conversion of ac voltage to dc voltage.
Due to ripple content capacitors are used as filter to
remove some ac content from rectified dc voltage..therefore
the flow of current will be unidirectional..
And these are used in ADC(analog to digital converters),
in adapters, in eliminators.

Answer / divya
rectifier is defined as an electronic device used for
converting ac voltage into unidirectional dc voltage
Rectifiers also find a use in detection of amplitude
modulated radio signals.Rectifiers are also used to supply
polarised voltage for welding.

Answer / starlin
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts
alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). Rectifiers
have many uses including as components of power supplies
and as detectors of radio signals.

Answer / dipayan dhar
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC), which periodically reverses direction, to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction. The process is known as rectification. Physically, rectifiers take a number of forms, including vacuum tube diodes, mercury arc valves, solid-state diodes, silicon-controlled rectifiers and other silicon-based semiconductor switches. Historically, even synchronous electromechanical switches and motors have been used. Early radio receivers, called crystal radios, used a "cat's whisker" of fine wire pressing on a crystal of galena (lead sulfide) to serve as a point-contact rectifier or "crystal detector".
Rectifiers have many uses, but are often found serving as components of DC power supplies and high-voltage direct current power transmission systems. Rectification may serve in roles other than to generate direct current for use as a source of power. As noted, detectors of radio signals serve as rectifiers. In gas heating systems flame rectification is used to detect presence of flame.

Guys I am in DILEMMA.. plz HELP!!! Guys, I am engineering graduate in ECE from Banglore(VTU). I am working as Tech support engr, in one of the mnc. Now I am worrying about my future, like should I continue in this (fedup with night shipts) or shall I do other domain courses (like software testing, SAP, JAVA )(?). If I do CCNA then is it gonna help me with the tech support engr and in future(?){if I get handsome bucks after doing the CCNA, then I can continue with the night shipts and tech support} But I dont know if it is going to happen(please suggest). Is the technical support will join to the Network engineer post in future(any way)? Will the pay become as like software in future? Please help!!!! Thank you
why we are using the bridge rectifier in most of the circuits instead of full wave rectifier even though the output of both are same?

Telecom BSS related ques: For cascaded 1800 BTS with master 900 BTS,if 900 master BTS is down for its own equipment fault,cascaded slave 1800 BTS gets down/stop carrying traffic without any fault as BCCH and other controllong channels are in master 900 BTS.Is there any technology/system to turn the slave 1800 BTS to a single 1800 BTS autometcally when 900 master BTS is down for its own equipment fault???It is possible to make the slave 1800 BTS single live BTS manually.But I want to know the autometic system/process.if there is any....if not available, how can we generate the system??
