C charges until Vm After wt=p/2, C discharges into load (R). The source becomes less than the output voltage Diode reverse biased; isolating the load from source.

Operation of FWD • Note that both D1 and D2 cannot be turned on at the same time. • For a positive cycle voltage source, • D1 is on, D2 is off • The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure (b) • The voltage across the R-L load is the same as the source voltage. • For a negative cycle voltage source, • D1 is off, D2 is on • The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure (c) • The voltage across the R-L load is zero. • However, the inductor contains energy from positive cycle. The load current still circulates through the R-L path. • But in contrast with the normal half wave rectifier, the circuit in Figure (c) does not consist of supply voltage in its loop. • Hence the “negative part” of vo as shown in the normal half-wave disappear.

D1 io D3 vp + vs _ + vo _ D4 vn D2 vo =vp -vn Single-phase diode groups • In the top group (D1, D3), the cathodes (-) of the two diodes are at a common potential. Therefore, the diode with its anode (+) at the highest potential will conduct (carry) id. • For example, when vs is ( +), D1 conducts id and D3 reverses (by taking loop around vs, D1 and D3). When vs is (-), D3 conducts, D1 reverses. • In the bottom group, the anodes of the two diodes are at common potential. Therefore the diode with its cathode at the lowest potential conducts id. • For example, when vs (+), D2 carry id. D4 reverses. When vs is (-), D4 carry id. D2 reverses.

Three-phase waveforms • Top group: diode with its anode at the highest potential will conduct. The other two will be reversed. • Bottom group: diode with the its cathode at the lowest potential will conduct. The other two will be reversed. • For example, if D1 (of the top group) conducts, vp is connected to van.. If D6 (of the bottom group) conducts, vn connects to vbn . All other diodes are off. • The resulting output waveform is given as: vo=vp-vn • For peak of the output voltage is equal to the peak of the line to line voltage vab .
