[Electronoobs] is using some brushless motors to make a DIY wind turbine. His recent video isn’t about the turbine itself, but a crucial electronic part: the three-phase rectifier. The reason it is so ...

This application note presents the status of the techniques of three-phase rectifier systems with low effects on the mains. The document describes the classification of three-phase rectifier systems ...

Sansha Electric Manufacturing Co. Ltd., the parent company of SanRex Corp., has expanded its 3-phase bridge diode family to include modules with a built-in thyristor. The DFA Series is designed for ...

Everyone loves a full-wave bridge rectifier, but there’s no denying that they aren’t 100% efficient due to the diode voltage drop. Which isn’t to say that with some effort we cannot create an ideal ...

A major cause of losses in a conventional power supply using a 50/60-Hz transformer is the bridge rectifier. This article shows how to build a “greener” rectifier, substantially reducing losses by ...
