  • Why get 5volts DC why not 9 volts :O??

  • @ImUrtastyflava The voltage drop over a LED is ca 2V. 9V-2V-2V=5V.

  • Very nice. I am curious how did you solve the ground problem? I always had trouble when using a signal generator directly without a transformer. I couldn’t isolate the source signal from the oscilloscope ground and the result was a half-wave rectification due to bad grounding. Very cool using LEDs though!

  • @1sunstarter66 I used a differential probe, the black box in front off the right scope.

  • AWESOME :)

  • This is a very nice video. Thank you for posting it. I noticed your website at the conclusion of the vid and am looking forward to checking it out. I'm working through my first bridge rectifier circuit (converting a 12.6AC signal to dc), and seeing how the capacitor affects the rectified signal was very nice. I've read about using a bleeder resister as well. Would that be useful, and how exactly would one wire it up? Thanks again, this looks like a lot of fun.

  • very good...a goog idea your project using led´s on the place of the diode´s.

    congratulations..

    I liked.

  • Nasty fart at 1.43....lol.

  • One of the BEST demonstrations I have ever seen to show whats really happening!  SALUTES!!!

  • very good demonstration of Full wave rectifier + filter. i was just wondering what that ripple was on the un filtered sine wave. i wish i had my own cro :(
