This simulation illustrates the working of a Full Wave Rectifier circuit using a center-tapped transformer and two diodes. The waveform at the top shows how both halves of the AC input are converted into positive pulses at the output, effectively doubling the frequency of the ripple. The circuit ensures that during both positive and negative cycles of the AC input, current flows through the load in the same direction, providing full-wave rectification. #ElectronicsEducation #electronicsrd #recti

This simulation compares a diode rectifier and a precision rectifier using a 1 kHz sine input (purple). The red output from the diode rectifier shows distortion and reduced amplitude due to the diode’s 0.7 V drop, making it inaccurate for small signals. In contrast, the green output from the precision rectifier uses an op-amp to cancel out the diode drop, giving accurate rectification even at very low voltages. The diode rectifier is simple, low-cost, and easy to build but suffers from inaccurac
