A bridge rectifier transforms alternating current into direct current using an arrangement of diodes. However, a full-wave bridge rectifier uses four specifically placed diodes that are connected to a closed loop which produces the desired output.
A full-wave bridge rectifier has a higher output power and higher output voltage, so it is twice as efficient of a half-wave rectifier.
The transformer utilization factor of a full-wave bridge rectifier is higher than in a single-tap rectifier and the core will have no problems due to DC saturation. Moreover, the full-wave bridge rectifier is getting more popular due to these advantages over half-wave and center-tap rectifiers.
