What is a rectifier bridge stack?

What is a rectifier bridge stack? Everyone knows that a bridge stack is a type of diode, so what is a rectifier bridge stack?

1、 What is a rectifier bridge stack

 The so-called rectifier bridge stack is composed of four diodes with four lead out pins. The connection point of the negative terminals of the two diodes is the "positive terminal" of the full bridge DC output terminal, and the connection point of the positive terminals of the two diodes is the "negative terminal" of the full bridge DC output terminal

 There are two types: half bridge and full bridge, and half bridge has two types: positive half bridge and negative half bridge.

 2、 Half bridge rectifier and full bridge rectifier

 A half bridge consists of two diodes with three lead out pins. The pins on both sides of the positive half bridge are the positive terminals of two diodes, which are the AC input terminals; The middle pin is the negative pole of two diodes, which is the "positive pole" of the DC output terminal. The diodes on both sides of the negative half bridge

 The negative terminals of the two diodes on the feet, which are the AC input terminals; The middle pin is the positive pole of two diodes, which is the "negative pole" of the DC output terminal. A positive half bridge and a negative half bridge can form a full bridge.

 3、 Basic principles of rectifier bridge stack

 Half bridge rectifier is a circuit that combines half of two diode bridge rectifiers together. Two half bridges can form a bridge rectifier circuit, and one half bridge can also form a full wave rectifier circuit with a transformer and a center tap.
