Question

Using four signal diodes and the resistor used in Task 1, construct the full wave rectifier

circuit shown as in Figure 2. The input signal Vin will be a sine wave from the function

generator with a 5 Vpp amplitude and 30 Hz frequency, no offset. First connect the input signal

to the oscilloscope. Save and record the oscilloscope display. Then disconnect the input signal

from the oscilloscope and connect the output signal. Save and record the oscilloscope display.

We cannot connect the input signal and the output signal to the oscilloscope at the same time

as this will short the input signal ground line and the output signal ground line, which are defined

differently in our full bridge rectifier circuit.

Comment on the result and to what extent the results match your predictions.

Compare your results with the result of Task 1.
