The conversion of A.C into D.C is called rectification and circuit is called rectifier. Which component of electronics acts as a rectifier?

Explanation

The component of electronics that acts as a rectifier is a diode.

Diodes allow current to flow in one direction only.

It enabling the conversion of alternating current (A.C.) into direct current (D.C.) by blocking the reverse flow.
