Full-wave rectifier
center-tapped
During the next half-cycle, the AC polarity reverses. Now, the other
diode and the other half of the transformer's secondary winding carry
current while the portions of the circuit formerly carrying current during
the last half-cycle sit idle. The load still sees half of a sine , of the
same polarity as before: positive on top and negative on bottom.

Bridge Circuit
REVIEW:
Rectification is the conversion of alternating current (AC) to
direct current (DC).
A half-wave rectifier is a circuit that allows only one half-cycle
of the AC voltage waveform to be applied to the load, resulting
in one non-alternating polarity across it. The resulting DC
delivered to the load pulsates significantly.
A full-wave rectifier is a circuit that converts both half-cycles of
the AC voltage waveform to an unbroken series of voltage
pulses of the same polarity. The resulting DC delivered to the
load doesn't pulsate as much.

To reduce the ripple even more without a lot of dc resistance, we can replace the
resistor with an inductor as shown in the circuit diagram
Contains two capacitors and one inductor form a symbol of
The two capacitors store energy as before, and attempt to maintain a constant
output voltage between input peaks from the rectifier.
At the same time, the inductor stores energy in its magnetic field, and releases
energy as needed in its attempt to maintain a constant current through itself.
This provides yet another factor that attempts to smooth out the ripple voltage.

regulator
ZENER DIODE
REGULATOR
This regulator is used for very simple low power applications where the currents involved
are very small and the load is permanently connected across the zener diode (such as
voltage reference or voltage source circuits).
The regulation of this circuit is not very good because the zener current (and hence the
zener voltage) will vary depending on VS and inversely depending on the load current.

SERIES
TRANSISTOR
REGULATOR
Much better regulation than the simple zener regulator, since the base
current of the transistor forms a very light load on the zener, thereby
minimising variation in zener voltage due to variation in the load.
Note that the output voltage will always be about 0.65V less than the zener
due to the transistor's VBE drop. Although this circuit has good regulation, it
is still sensitive to the load and supply variation.
