A rectifier changes alternating current to direct current. Direct current is necessary for to power radios, televisions, computers, battery chargers, mobile phone chargers etc. in fact, most of our household appliances. The reason we use a.c. at all is just because it is so much easier to make. Anyway, hope this helped.

A full-wave rectifier (sometimes called a "bridge" rectifier) produces output current on both half-cycles of the input AC waveform. ******************************************** There are two types of full wave rectifier circuit. One uses four diodes in a "bridge"configuration and is fed from a simple transformer winding. The other uses two diodes and needs to be fed from a centre tapped transformer winding.
