CENTRE TAP FULL-WAVERECTIFIER
In positive half-cycle

The full wave rectifier circuit consists of two power diodes connected to a single load resistance (RL) with each diode taking it in turn to supply current to the load. diode D1 conducts in the forward direction as indicated by the arrows and diode is d2 reverse-bias. the current flowing throughresistor R is in the same direction.
In the negative half -cycle
Diode D2 conducts in the forward direction and diode D1 reverse-bias. the current flowing through resistor R is in the same direction for both half-cycles.As the spaces between each half-wave developed by each diode is now being filled in by the other diode the average DC output voltage across the load resistor is now double that of the single half-wave rectifier circuit and is about 0.637Vmax of the peak voltage, assuming no losses.
