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.
