INFORMATION SHEET 1.1
AC-DC Power Supply
A power supply is the heart of all electronics equipment. It converts AC input power line to DC output voltage. It is the one that supplies the desired voltage or current in a circuit. Without it, all of the electronic equipment will not function properly or will be a dead set.
AC-DC Power Supply
TYPES OF AC-DC POWER SUPPLY
A basic power supply consists of three basic stages: the power transformer stage, rectifier stage, and filter stage. An additional stage is sometimes added if there is a need for regulation. This stage is called regulator.

One rectifier diode D1 and one load resistor RL are needed to conduct one alteration in every cycle of small AC input.
Schematic Diagram of A Half-Wave Rectifier
2. Full-Wave Center-Tapped Rectifier Circuit
Using this type of circuit, you’ll need a center-tapped transformer, two rectifier diodes and a load resistor (RL). Each of the diode supplies one-half the DC load current.
5 3. Full-Wave Bridge Type Rectifier Circuit
Schematic Diagram of A Full-Wave Power Supply
The previous circuit illustration uses four rectifier diodes D1 D2 D3 D4 and a load resistor (RL). Bridge circuit makes it possible to remove the center-tapped transformer. Among the types of power supply this circuit can deliver a higher current range to the load because all of cycles are consumed by the four diodes.
The operation of this rectifier circuit is different from the half-wave and full-wave center tapped. The conduction of AC voltage starts from Line-A going to the Line-B.
First Conduction
The negative half-cycle will be going to conduct to the cathode of diode D1, thru the RL and going to conduct to the cathode of diode D4 then Line-B. In this case D1 and D4 are conducting.
6 Second Conduction
The positive half-cycle will be going to conduct to the anode of diode D2, thru the RL and going to conduct to the anode of diode D3 then Line-B. In this case D2 and D3 are conducting.
Second Conduction in a Full Wave Power Supply Characteristics of a Full Bridge Type Power Supply
a. Expensive
b. Needs a lower value of capacitance c. Needs four rectifier diodes
Filter Stage
The filtering stage is one of the stages of the power supply which filters the pulsating DC. Output of rectifier stage and make it a pure DC voltages. The main function of the filter circuit is to increase the DC output and to smoothen the pulsating DC. Filter Stage

This can cause distortion.7 Basic Methods of Filtering
1. Simple Capacitor in Parallel
You can parallel as many electrolytic capacitors as you want. This will increase the amount of capacitance causing good filtering effects to DC output. This is used for high current applications. The only disadvantage is that it will occupy a bigger space.
Filter Circuit
2. Filter with RC Circuit
This circuit is actually a resistor in series with the positive line together with 2 bypass capacitor C1 & C2. It is good in lowering the DC voltage output.
Filter with RC Circuit
Placing additional capacitor in the output.
Placing a resistor in series with the positive line can cause voltage drop.
8 3. Filter with Inductor
This circuit has a good filtering effect to the pulsating DC output of the rectifier. It uses minimal value of capacitance and it is good in low current and high current application. The only disadvantage is that the inductor in series with the positive line takes up big space in mounting it in the PC.

INFORMATION SHEET 2.1
Designing and Etching PCB of AC-DC Power Supply
A printed circuit board (PCB) has components inserted into the hole and soldered to form its circuit connection. Its main purpose is to reduce the space and to troubleshoot easily when problem arises.
The printed circuit board (PCB) has conductors that are thin strip of copper, usually bonded to a baseboard called substrate. There are two very common substrate materials used in printed circuit, the phenolic and epoxy plastic.
Printed Circuit Board
Printed Circuit Board Etching is where the excess copper is removed to leave the individual tracks or traces as they are sometimes called. Buckets, bubble tanks, and spray machines are tools to do different ways of etching but most firms currently use high pressure conveyors spray equipment. Spray etching is fast Ammoniacal etching solutions when sprayed can etch 55 microns of copper a minute. Less than 40 seconds to etch a standard 1 oz, 35 micron circuit board.
Printed Circuit Board Etching
Many different chemical solutions can be used to etch circuit boards ranging from slow controlled speed etches used for surface preparation to the faster etches used for etching the tracks. Some are best used in horizontal spray process equipment while others are best used in tanks. Enchants for PTH work have to be selective and be non aggressive to tin / tin lead plating, which is used as the etch resists. Copper etching is normally exothermic where high
Substrate
Copper
19 speed etching is carried out solution cooling is normally required. This is normally done by placing titanium water cooling coils into the enchant. Almost all etching solutions liberate toxic corrosive fumes. Extraction is highly recommended. All enchants are corrosive and toxic mainly due to the high metal content. P.P.E. Personal Protection Equipment must always be used. Spent solutions should always be disposed properly and not to be spilled down local drains where they can pollute local sewage works and rivers.
Manufacturing of Printed Circuits in the Copper Clad Board
In PCB designing, we should not focus only on the size of the pathways linking to the other component, but also on the types, kinds, and characteristics of component. Here are the other design factors needed:
1. PCB size and shape. The PCB must be big enough for the entire component to be mounted where it is anticipated.
2. Position of the Terminal. Input, output and supply voltage if possible should be placed near the border for easier way during troubleshooting or minor repair.
3. High Temperature Dissipation. Too much heat is the number one problem of all components. Bigger space is needed so that heat sink can be provided to the component. This will protect the component from burning up.
4. Accessibility of Components. This component that is adjustable or variable (example: potentiometer, trimmer resistor or capacitor) should be placed near the border to make the troubleshooting or minor repair easier.
5. Space for Bolt and Nut. The designer should place an allowance for mounting the PCB with bolt and nut in securing the entire board to the chassis.
6. Different Types of Circuit Should be Grouped according to its
Application. This will enhance the circuit operation and will prevent it
from distortion generated by other circuit. This is the reason why the circuit of the power supply is far from the audio circuit.
