EXPERIMENT No 4

Objective: To Implement a Full Wave Bridge Rectifier

Apparatus:
Oscilloscope 01
Function Generator 01
Diodes Silicon 04
Resistor 01
Project Board 01
Circuit Diagram:

D1 D4

AC R
V0

D3 D2

Procedure:

1. Fixed the apparatus on bread board according to the circuit diagram.

2. Connect the input from function generator Connect the out put to the
oscilloscope and observe the wave shapes.
3. During positive half cycle D1 and D2 are forward bias and vice versa. Note the
drop across the diodes.
4. The output across the resistor is pulsating DC.
 5. Draw the corresponding waveforms of input and output as shown by the
oscilloscope.
