How to Convert AC to DC

Hii friend,

Today I am going to make Bridge rectifier circuit that will covert AC power to DC.That DC Power we can use in Amplifier and in various electronic devices.

Let's get started,

Materials required -

(1.) Step-down Transformer (For AC Power) x1

(2.) Digital multimeter (For checking AC and DC power)

(3.) Capacitor - 25V 1000uf x1

(4.) Diode - 1N4007 x4

This picture show Anode side and cathode side of the diode.

As you can see in the picture Black side is anode and white side is cathode.

Firstly we have to connect anode sides of two diodes as connected in the picture.

Next we have to connect cathode sides of remain two diodes as sown in picture.

Now connect all remaining four wires of the diodes as you can see in the picture.

Next cut extra wires of diodes and solder it.

Next connect AC Power input wires to diodes as solder in the picture.

# Bridge rectifier will give full wave output.

This is Input AC Power supply to the Bridge rectifier.

Now we have to connect a capacitor to the bridge rectifier.

Solder +ve pin of capacitor to Cathode side of diodes and

-ve pin of capacitor to Anode side of diodes as you can see in the picture.

Now connect Output wires of Rectifier.

Solder +ve output wire to +ve of capacitor and

Solder -ve output wire to -ve pin of capacitor as solder in the picture.

Give AC Input power supply using step down transformer to the Bridge rectifier and check its input as shown in picture-1 and

Check its output voltage in DC as shown picture-2.

Have you any doubt about this circuit comment now and follow utsource now for more electronic projects.

Thank you
