A rectifier is an electronic device that converts alternating electrical current (which flows back and forth) into direct current (which flows in one direction), and it needs to be mounted on a heatsink because the conversion process generates significant heat. Rectifiers are essential components in power supplies and many other electrical systems that require steady, one-directional current to operate properly.

Likriktning används inom elektronik för att omvandla växelström till likström. Till detta använder man en likriktare bestående av sammankopplade dioder. Beroende på hur många dioder man använder och hur man kopplar dem kan man skapa antingen en halv- eller helvågslikriktare.För att ytterligare jämna ut strömmen efter likriktaren kan man koppla på en kondensator, vilket kallas för att glätta strömmen.
