Re: Simple bridge rectifier not functioning as expected «Reply #2 on:November 30, 2014, 03:22:15 pm » Yup, I've been working with electronics students lately and pretty much all of them did this during the
By using the tapped low-pass filter inductor and saturable reactors in the rectifier stage, the freewheeling current through the transformer and its primary side circuit can be effectively minimized. In addition, the switching and conduction losses of the DC-DC power converter are substantially ...
coupled to a full-wave bridge rectifier CR2, the output of which is coupled across a pair of electrolytic filter capacitors C10 and C12 to produce plus and minus voltages at output terminals E1+ and E1-. These voltages are then coupled to the saturating CE amplifier 50 at corresponding ...
