  2. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectifier

    "Full-wave" versions with two separate plates were popular because they could be used with a center-tapped transformer to make a full-wave rectifier. Vacuum tube rectifiers were made for very high voltages, such as the high voltage power supply for the CRT of television receivers, and the kenotron used for power supply in X-ray equipment.

  3. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

    Full-wave center-tapped rectifier with capacitor filter. Reducing ripple is only one of several principal considerations in power supply filter design. [nb 1] The filtering of ripple voltage is analogous to filtering other kinds of signals. However, in AC/DC power conversion as well as DC power generation, high voltages and currents or both may ...

  4. Center tap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_tap

    Low-frequency mains transformers often have center taps. Historically, rectifier costs were high, so DC power supplies with a center-tapped transformer and two diodes ...

  5. Active rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_rectification

    Active full-wave rectification with two MOSFETs and a center tap transformer. Replacing a diode with an actively controlled switching element such as a MOSFET is the heart of active rectification. MOSFETs have a constant very low resistance when conducting, known as on-resistance (R DS(on)). They can be made with an on-resistance as low as 10 ...

    K – Kenotron (rectifier) Even number after K: Full-wave rectifier; Odd number after K: Half-wave rectifier; L – Low-mu triode (μ<30) P – Power tetrode or pentode; R – Sharp-cutoff tetrode or pentode; S – Tetrode with a space charge grid (the 2nd grid is the control grid) T – Gas-filled, grid-controlled; V – Variable-mu (remote ...

  7. Voltage multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_multiplier

    For 240 V operation, the switch configures the system as a full-wave bridge, re-connecting the capacitor center-tap wire to the open AC terminal of a bridge rectifier system. This allows 120 or 240 V operation with the addition of a simple SPDT switch. A voltage tripler is a three-stage voltage multiplier.

  8. Royer oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royer_oscillator

    The voltage on the transformer centre-tap node swings up and down as the inductor opposes current change. As a result the waveform appears much like the output of a full-wave rectifier (refer Rectifier). The d.c. supply voltage equates to the average, so the tap peaks at approximately (pi/2)*Vcc.

  9. Mercury-arc valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury-arc_valve

    Mercury rectifier on display in the Beromünster AM transmitter in Switzerland, before being decommissioned.Three-phase full-wave rectifier with six anodes. A mercury-arc valve or mercury-vapor rectifier or (UK) mercury-arc rectifier [1] [2] is a type of electrical rectifier used for converting high-voltage or high-current alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC).
