| Sr. No. | Half Wave Controller | Full Wave Controller |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() |
![]() |
| 2 | ![]() |
![]() |
| 3 | Only half cycle of the supply is controlled | Both the half cycles of the supply are controlled |
| 4 | Half Wave Controller generates asymmetric voltage and current across load | Full Wave Controller generates symmetric voltage and current across load |
| 5 | RMS load voltage $V_{0 (r m s)}=\frac{V_{m}}{2} \sqrt{\frac{(2 \pi-\alpha)+\frac{\sin 2 \alpha}{2}}{\pi}}$ | RMS load voltage $V_{0}=\frac{V_{m}}{\sqrt{2}} \sqrt{\frac{(\pi-\alpha)+\frac{\sin 2 \alpha}{2}}{\pi}}$ |
| 6 | Average load voltage $V_{d c}=\frac{V_{m}}{2\pi}[\cos \alpha-1]$ | Average load voltage $V_{d c}=0$ |
| 7 | Average load current $I_{d c}=\frac{V_{d c}}{R}$ | Average load current $I_{d c}=0$ |
