Transformerless Power Supply Circuit We will use a zener diode among other elements to acheive the Transformerless Power Supply circuit. This means that our power supply will give a limited range current value (it will be a maximum and a minimum posible current that the power supply circuit can deliver). This power suply must be permanently connected to the circuit as a whole […]
