Huawei R4850G6 Rectifier Module
A rectifier module is a part of all the electric equipment composed of diode or diodes, which convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). Diode is a device that allows flow of current through it only in one direction and often it is used to design rectifiers. Rectifier diode acts as a rectifier, with the main function of changing AC to DC, and is broadly used in power rectifier circuits.
A rectifier module comes in various physical forms such as vacuum tube diodes, solid state diodes, silicon-controlled rectifiers, valves of mercury arc and silicon-based semiconductor switches. Almost all the rectifiers contain more than one diode in particular arrangements.
Basically, a rectifier module produces DC that encloses active current and voltage, which are then adjusted into a type of constant voltage DC, though this varies depending on the current's end use. The current flow is uninterrupted in single direction, no current is permitted in another direction.
Rectifier modules have different types of configurations, depending on the components such as type of supply, control nature, and components used, among others. Majorly rectifier modules are classified into half wave, full wave, three phase and single phase rectifier modules as well as half controlled, uncontrolled and full controlled rectifiers.
Rectifier modules have many applications including radio signal or detectors, DC power supplies, a power source rather than generating current, direct current and high voltage power transmission system, various household appliances, such as laptops or notebook, television and video games system, require power rectifiers to create power.
