Half wave rectifier passes only ____.
- A
Lower half cycle
- B
Upper half cycle
- C
Both cycles
- D
None of them
Positive half cycles of the applied input voltage. It blocks the negative half cycles and converts AC (alternating current) to DC (direct current).
The half-wave rectifier passes only the positive half cycles of the input voltage, not the upper half cycle.
