1. OBJECTIVES
Design a single-phase full-wave rectifier to feed a resistive load, and check the results
obtained by using the "OrCAD" simulator.
A full-wave rectifier converts the entire input waveform into a constant (positive or negative)
polarity at the output, by reversing the negative (or positive) portions of the input waveform. The
positive (or negative) portions are combined with the inverses of negatives (positive) to produce a
partially positive (negative) waveform.
The full-wave rectifier is a circuit used to take advantage of both alternating current semicycles
and to obtain direct current as an ideal result (positive and negative) although the result appears to
be the same as in the half-wave rectifier, in this Case the intensity levels are higher and the voltage
drop is lower when a load is applied to the system. There are two alternatives, either using two
diodes or using four (Graetz bridge).

Once the simulations have been carried out and the values requested are measured, they can be
observed in tables 1 and 2.
Table 1 shows the voltage and current values when there is only a resistive load.

A condenser was subsequently placed in parallel to the load, allowing a ripple voltage of 10% of
the maximum load voltage, and with the simulator the output waveform was measured, and the
peak-to-peak value of curly was determined and the value of the average voltage Vcc.

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS:
From the data obtained both theoretically and experimentally, you can see variations among
themselves, ie there are cases where the calculation of errors is low and another where it is high.
In this case the rectifier was designed by means of four diodes instead of using a transformer with
central bypass, are observed in the simulations of the annex, that during the positive half cycle of
the input voltage, the current will be supplied to the load through The diodes D1 and D2, during
the negative semicycle, the diodes D3y D4, are the ones that lead.
The data obtained in the simulations are correctly adjusted to the data obtained theoretically, thus
proving that experimentally the practice can be carried out and the desired results can be obtained.
When observing the factors of curling, of form, of use of the transformer, it can be detailed that
they are suitable for the use of the rectifier in industrial applications and that compared with the
rectifier of half wave is much more efficient and useful for works of Largest.
CONCLUSIONS
• The full-wave rectifier has a performance of 80.58% compared to 40% of the average
wave is much more efficient to operate.
• It is observed that the ripple factor of the full wave rectifier is 48% and the ripple
factor of the mean wave is 121% therefore the complete wave rectifier is used in the
industry for robust controls.
• It is concluded that by increasing the capacitor's value it will decrease ripple factor.
• When performing the full wave rectifier with a diode bridge, stress is reduced in the
elements such as the diode and the transformer, i.e. it distributes the current and there
will be fewer effects on the diodes mainly.
