A
rectifier
is a device that converts an oscillating two-directional alternating current (AC) into a single-directional direct current (DC).
Rectifiers
can take a wide variety of physical forms, from vacuum tube diodes and crystal radio receivers to modern silicon-based designs.

The full-wave
rectifier converts
both halves of the
AC
sine wave to positive-voltage direct current. The result is
DC
voltage that pulses at twice the frequency of the input
AC
voltage. In other words, assuming the input is 60 Hz household current, the output will be
DC
pulsing at 120 Hz.
