In semiconductor physics, what is meant by:(i) rectifier (ii) an amplifier (iii) an oscillator

Answer»

(i) Rectifier:

It is a device which converts alternating current into direct current.

(ii) Amplifier :

An amplifier is a device which increases the energy of a weak signal by supplying energy from an external source. An amplifier increases the amplitude of a input signal.

(iii) Oscillator:

An oscillator is a device which produces electrical oscillations of adjustable frequency and constant amplitude. An oscillator is basically an amplifier. A part of the output energy is fed back into the L-C circuit to produce sustained oscillations. .
