electricity to a suitable low voltage supply for electronics circuits and other devices. The importance of DC power supply: a) Most electric equipment requires DC voltage. b) Dry cells unable to accommodate the needs of electrical equipments and not economical. c) Power supplied to the house in AC but electrical equipment needs DC voltage.
A power supply can by broken down into a series of

to another with little loss of power. Transformers work only with AC and this is one of the reasons why mains electricity is AC. Step-up transformers increase voltage, Step-down transformers reduce voltage. Most DC power supplies use a step-down transformer to reduce the dangerously high mains voltage (240V ) to a safer low voltage.

*The low voltage AC output is suitable for lamps, heaters and special AC motors. It is not suitable for electronic circuits unless they include a rectifier and a smoothing capacitor.

a rectifier to convert AC to DC. i. single diode can be used as a rectifier but it only uses the positive (+) parts of the AC wave to produce half-wave varying DC. ii. bridge rectifier is the most important and it produces full-wave varying DC. iii full-wave rectifier can also be made from just two diodes if a centre-tap transformer is used, but this method is rarely used now that diodes are cheaper.

the input, the diode is forward biased allowing the capacitor to charge to within a diode drop of the input peak, as figure (a) -When the input begins to decrease below its peak (b), the capacitor retains its charge and the diode becomes reverse biased During the first quarter of the next cycle, the diode again will become forward biased when the input voltage exceeds the capacitor by approximately a diode drop, as ilustrated in (c)

FILTER
A capacitor-input filter will charge and discharge such that it
fills in the gaps between each peak. This reduces variations of voltage. This voltage variation is called ripple voltage. The smaller the ripple voltage, the better the filtering action. The advantage of a full-wave rectifier over a half-wave is quite clear. The capacitor can more effectively reduce the ripple when the time between peaks is shorter.

more effective. The higher value of capacitor will take more times to discharge (Time constant longer). must be doubled when smoothing half-wave DC.

VOLTAGE REGULATOR
The regulated DC output is very smooth with no
ripple. It is suitable for all electronic circuits. The main purpose was to reduce change to zero or at least to value that most minimum. Types of voltage regulator circuits: i. Zener diode ii. Serial transistor iii. Integrated circuits

Voltage take out will sampled by one circuits which supplies reverse biased voltage that will be compared with reference voltage If output voltage decrease, addition in VBE will cause transistor to generate more value stream that are going to rise output voltage and maintain output voltage. Zener diode going to act as reference voltage. Process that same happens if output voltage increase. Transistor would be minimized value stream, cause output voltage decrease and maintain output voltage.

IC Voltage Regulator
Eliminates ripple by setting DC output to a
fixed voltage Voltage regulator ICs are available with fixed (typically 5, 9 and 12V) or variable output voltages. Many of the fixed voltage regulator ICs have 3 leads and look like power transistors, such as the 7805 +5V 1A regulator shown on the right. They include a hole for attaching a heatsink if necessary.
