A single phase ac - dc converter is also known as____________?
Correct answer: A. rectifier
- A. rectifier
- B. inverter
- C. chopper
- D. regulator
Explanation
A single-phase AC-to-DC converter changes alternating voltage into unidirectional voltage, which is the rectification process. An inverter performs the opposite DC-to-AC conversion.
