Another example for DC of a much more complex nature is the rectified current of a generator.
This current is positive, but it’s also pulsating. These pulsations are additionally amplified by the
fact that in the shown example below there is a damaged diode in the rectifier bridge.
Example of complex DC voltage
Alternating current (AC) - In AC the movement of electric charge periodically reverses
direction. In direct current (DC), the flow of electric charge is only in one direction. The signal
varies around 0V. Its momentary value can be both positive and negative. Such voltages are
represented by almost all signals from inductive sensors: the CKP sensor, the CMP sensor, the
signal from the ABS sensor etc.
The voltage in the electrical circuit is also AC and has sinusoidal shape. All examples viewed in
the “Periodical and non-periodical signals” section are also examples for variable signals.
