Correct Answer: B — AC into DC
Explanation:
A single-phase fully controlled rectifier uses four thyristors in a full-bridge configuration to convert AC input into controlled DC output. The firing angle α determines the output voltage level, ranging from maximum positive DC at α = 0° down to zero at α = 180°.
