Abstract
A rectifier circuit comprises a transformer having a primary winding connected to an an AC power source, a first diode whose anode is connected through a first capacitor to one end of a secondar winding of the transformer, a second diode whose cathode is connected through the first capacitor to the one end of the secondary winding, and a second capacitor connected between the cathode of the first diode and the anode of the second diode. A third capacitor is connected between the anode of the second diode and the other end of the secondary winding, and a third diode is connected between the anode of the second diode and the second capacitor and in the same rectifying direction as those of the first and second diodes, and the tap of the secondary winding is grounded.
