Negative Half Wave Rectifiers
The study of negative half wave rectifier is closely identical to that of positive half wave rectifier. The single difference is that the voltage polarities are reversed. We might make an easy method for carry out the mathematical analysis of negative half wave rectifier.
(i) Analyze the circuit like if this was a positive half wave rectifier.
(ii) After finishing calculations, change all of the voltage polarity signs from positive to negative.
