rectifier
(redirected from Synchronous rectifier)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
rectifier
[rek′tifī′ər]
an electric device that converts alternating current into pulsating direct current (DC). Rectifiers are used to power x-ray tubes, which require a DC electric source.

rectifier (rek´tifīur),
n a device used for converting an alternating current to a direct current; it also prevents or limits the flow of current in the opposite direction.
rectifier, full-wave,
n an apparatus for rectifying the entire wave of an alternating current in a radiography machine by means of a mechanical rectifier or valve tube.
rectifier, half-wave,
n an apparatus used in the rectifying of half of the sine wave in a radiography unit.
