Center-Tapped Transformer<br />

This full-wave rectifier appears with two diodes but requiring a center-tapped (CT)<br />

transformer to establish the input signal across each section of the secondary of the<br />

transformer.<br />

(a) Consider the +ve portion of v i applied to primary of the transformer.<br />

D 1 assumes the short-circuit equivalent and D 2 the open-circuit equivalent, as<br />

determined by the secondary voltages and the resulting current directions.<br />
