2. Average rectified value - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_rectified_value

   Thus the easiest way to determine a quantitative measurement size is to use the average rectified value. The average rectified value is mainly used to characterize alternating voltage and current. It can be computed by averaging the absolute value of a waveform over one full period of the waveform. [1]

3. True RMS converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_RMS_converter

   True RMS provides a more correct value that is proportional to the square root of the average of the square of the curve, and not to the average of the absolute value. For any given waveform , the ratio of these two averages is constant and, as most measurements are made on what are (nominally) sine waves, the correction factor assumes this ...

4. Rectifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_Utilization_factor

   A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Mathematically, this corresponds to the absolute value function. Full-wave rectification converts both polarities of the input waveform to pulsating DC (direct current), and yields a higher average output voltage.

5. Form factor (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_factor_(electronics)

   [5] The squaring in RMS and the absolute value in ARV mean that both the values and the form factor are independent of the wave function's sign (and thus, the electrical signal's direction) at any point. For this reason, the form factor is the same for a direction-changing wave with a regular average of 0 and its fully rectified version.

6. Pulsed DC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_DC

   Pulsed DC is commonly produced from AC (alternating current) by a half-wave rectifier or a full-wave rectifier. Full wave rectified ac is more commonly known as Rectified AC. PDC has some characteristics of both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) waveforms. The voltage of a DC wave is roughly constant, whereas the voltage of an AC ...

7. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

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

   The characteristics and components of ripple depend on its source: there is single-phase half- and full-wave rectification, and three-phase half- and full-wave rectification. Rectification can be controlled (uses Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs)) or uncontrolled (uses diodes). There is in addition, active rectification which uses transistors.

8. CDC monitoring possible spike of HMPV cases in China - AOL

   Dr. Eileen Schneider, a medical epidemiologist in the CDC's Division of Viral Diseases, said HMPV is "associated with approximately 20,000 hospitalizations among children younger than 5 years."

9. 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 ...
