Full-Wave Bridge Rectifier with CMOS Pass Transistors Configuration

Abstract

An effortless, more efficient full-wave bridge rectifier is introduced with minimum distortion. Efficient and exploratory combinations of CMOS logic are not only utilized to design full-wave bridge rectifier, but also as pass transistors configurations at the input. The particular CMOS logic (used to design core rectifier circuit) is a collective form of SDG-NMOS and SGS-PMOS. SDG-NMOS refers to a shorted drain gate n-channel metal oxide semiconductor. SGS-PMOS refers to shorted gate to source p-channel metal oxide semiconductor. Due to the utilization of renovated MOS configuration after the replacement of the diode, the efficiency of the full-wave bridge rectifier is increased up to 11% compared to p-n junction diode based full wave bridge rectifier. The proposed full wave bridge rectifier is a comparably low power circuit. The proposed CMOS based full-wave bridge rectifier is optimized at 45-nm CMOS technology. Cadence experimental simulation and implementations of the leakage power and efficiency demonstrate better consistency through the proposed circuit.

Current and transconductance mode full/half‐wave rectifiers realized with only one active block

“…However, upon reviewing the literature of previous solutions published within the last decade, it becomes apparent that the proposed solutions possess certain weaknesses. These weaknesses include notable voltage consumption, 7,15,25,27 reliance on diodes, 3,8,10,14,[16][17][18]30 utilization of multiple passive elements, [6][7][8][9]14,30 dependency on an external switch, 5,20,22,26,27 and the lack of output adjustability.

“…Over the past two decades, numerous rectifier designs utilizing various active blocks have been proposed in the literature, 3–32 with a range of voltage and current operating modes. Researchers in this demanding area of analog processing have focused on overcoming the limitations of classical diode rectifiers (e.g., diode threshold voltage) and operational amplifier (OA)‐based rectifiers.…”
