A full Wave Bridge Rectifier

Another type of circuit that produces the same output waveform as the full wave rectifier circuit above, is that of the Full Wave Bridge Rectifier. This type of single phase rectifier uses four individual rectifying diodes connected in a closed loop “bridge” configuration to produce the desired output.
The main advantage of this bridge circuit is that it does not require a special centre tapped transformer, thereby reducing its size and cost. The single secondary winding is connected to one side of the diode bridge network and the load to the other side as shown below.

 The Diode Bridge Rectifier


The four diodes labelled D1 to D4 are arranged in “series pairs” with only two diodes conducting current during each half cycle. During the positive half cycle of the supply, diodes D1 and D2 conduct in series while diodes D3 and D4 are reverse biased and the current flows through the load as shown below.

The Positive half cycle

I complete this later bye for now fans

how to make a lead acid accumulator battery charger

 lead acid accumulator charger circuit introduction: To charge a battery from an A.C source ,first you need a step down transformer, a rectifier and a voltage regulator  to maintain a constant voltage . then it can be used to charge a battery. if a D.C voltage source is available ,you only need a DC-DC voltage regulator , then give the volts to the battery DC VOLTAGE -→→DC VOLTAGE REGULATOR -→→BATTERY As seen in the DC voltage is given to the DC voltage regulator here we use LM317 which is a DC voltage regulator. The regulated DC out voltage is given to battery. There is also a trickle charge mode circuitry which will help to reduce the current when the battery is fully charged.   component of athe battery charger circuit LM317:   LM317 is voltage regulator invented by Robert C. Dobkin and Robert J. Widlar in 1970.the main function of this voltage regulator is to regulate the voltage and give the constant voltage without any noise disturbance; fo...

Flame Detectors Explained

 Flame sensor/ detectors: Flame detectors(sensors) detect the presence of flame.  just as every other sensor operate ; they detect a change in a physical phenomenon and then produce an output signal proportional to the change in the physical phenomenon being sensed or detected. The presence of fire which relates to flames is a physical condition to be watched against  and since this is an unwanted condition , there arise the need to constantly watch(detect) against it and eliminate it as quick as possible when detected . Flame detectors are devices that watch against flames (fire ) , it may also be called a fire detector.  A flame sensor detects a flame but what physical or measureable characteristics of a flame does it detects??. with this question in mind , we need to overview flames , identify the properties of a flame that can be detected /measured / sensed  and work on the best methodology to detect flames. OVERVIEW OF FLAMES A flame is a mixture of reac...

How DC motor works and control.

Introduction to DC motors A DC motor is an electric motor that converts direct current electrical energy into mechanical energy. They operate based on the principle of "Force acting on a coil of wire in a magnetic field". This principle states that when a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, the conductor experiences a mechanical force. The direction of this force is determined by Fleming's left-hand rule, and the magnitude of the force can be expressed as:                   F= B*I*L ( in newtons) where  F- force(newtons) B- magnetic field (Tesla) I- Current ( Ampere) L- Length of the conductor. According to Fleming's left-hand rule, the direction of the force is perpendicular to both the conductor and the magnetic field.   Tip: if the direction of current flow is reversed, the direction of rotation of the motor changes also. Controlling DC motors DC motors find use in various applications where ope...
