A new design of thyristor full-wave rectifier is introduced. Differing from the traditional synchronizing and triggering modes, the rectifier uses an opto-electric coupler as the isolator and a counter-EPROM set as the pulse controller. Though both the analogue and digital modes are involved in the processing of signal transmission, the main process which included the series-phase-shifting and the parallel-triggering is done with digital circuits. So, in addition to the merits of simplicity and reliability, a key advantage is the high stability against disturbance. It can be the first choice for laser power supplies.
