What is half wave rectifier:

The half wave rectifier is the circuit designed using the diode which is used for converting the AC voltage signal into the DC voltage.

The half wave rectifier only passes the one half of the input sine wave (either positive or negative) and rejects the other half.

The output of the half wave rectifier is pulsating DC. The ripple in the output waveform can be reduced using the filter.

To remove or reduce the ripple from the output waveform, the RC time constant of the filter circuit should be much larger than the time period of the half wave rectifier.

Parameters of the half wave rectifier:

Average Value: Vm / π

RMS Value: Vm/2

Ripple Factor: 1.21

Efficiency: 40.6 %

PIV: Vm
