In this YouTube lecture, I explain how to model a half-wave rectifier circuit with a transformer to convert a 230V RMS AC input from the mains to a 3.6V DC output. I walk through all the essential calculations, including selecting the transformer turns ratio, determining the diode parameters, and calculating the capacitor for filtering. After completing the theoretical design, I simulate the entire circuit using LTSpice to verify the output voltage and analyze the waveform. Join me as we explore the detailed steps of designing and simulating this rectifier circuit!
