Example

Notes

In a real world circuit, a full-wave rectifier is typically produced by using a transformer and a bridge configuration of 4 diodes. This effectively allows positive going signals through untouched and inverts negative-going signals so that all outputs are the same polarity. When used for power supplies or signal recovery, the full-wave rectifier is more complex than a half wave rectifier but at the same time is far more efficient since all of the signal passes through.
