Non-inverting half wave rectifier:As shown in the figure, the noninverting half wave rectifier
consists of a non-inverting
amplifier with a diode in the
feedback loop of an op-amp.
The analysis of this circuit can be
done by considering two cases:
1. When input is positive (Vin>0V)
2. When input is negative (Vin<0V)
Case 1:
When the input is positive, it is amplified by the operational
amplifier and it turns the diode on.
There is current in the load and, because of the feedback, the
output voltage is equal to the input.
Case
2:
Case 1:
When the input is positive, current flows through R1 and
diode D2 becomes forward biased and D1 is reverse biased.
As the current flowing through R2 is zero, the output voltage
is equal to the input.
