What is Rectifier Battery Charger?

Aug , 26 2021

What is Rectifier Battery Charger: A rectifier transforms altering current (AC) into direct current (DC). Its normal function is charging batteries and keeping them in optimum conditions while at the same time, providing DC power for other loads. Consequently ,it's essential that the unit takes into account what kind of batteries it's feeding (Pb or NiCd) when operating. It works automatically and...

Fourier Analysis of input current of Single phase controlled bridge rectifier

Aug , 29 2022

While the use of uncontrolled rectifier circuits remains prominent, for some applications, more control and efficiency is necessary. This can be accomplished through the use of a controlled rectifier circuit in which thyristors connected in a full-bridge configuration adjust the average voltage. Each thyristor has a gate that controls when it turns on. With control circuitry these devices can be o...
