Which type of rectifier circuit uses two diodes and a center-tapped transformer?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: A. Full-wave
A full-wave rectifier with a center-tapped transformer uses two diodes, one for each half of the cycle. A full-wave bridge uses four diodes and no center tap.
Tip: Center tap + two diodes = full-wave.
