Abstract
A rotating rectifier assembly has a substrate which has a metal core and a ceramic coating. An exciter rotor which produces an ac signal and the rectifier assembly are disposed about a generator shaft. The substrate has rectifiers arranged in a rectifying circuit. An ac lead extends from the ac windings in the exciter rotor to the rectifying circuit where a dc signal is generated and fed to a main generator rotor.
