I. INTRODUCTION
Almost all basic household electronic circuits need an
unregulated AC to be converted to constant DC, in order to
operate the electronic device. All devices will have a certain
power supply limit and the electronic circuits inside these
devices must be able to supply a constant DC voltage within
this limit. That is, all the active and passive electronic devices
will have a certain DC operating point, and this point must be
achieved by the source of DC power. The DC power supply is
practically converted to each and every stage in an electronic
system. Thus a common requirement for all this phases will be
the DC power supply.

A. Transformer
This device is use to step down a relatively higher AC input
Voltage (220Vrms) into a lower AC output voltage (12Vrms).
Basically, there are two sides in a transformer where the coil
winding inside the transformer ends. Both ends have two wires
each .On the transformer, one side will have three terminals
and the other will have two. The one with the three terminals is
the stepped down output of the transformer, and the one with
the two terminals is where the input voltage is to be provided.
B. Bridge Rectifier
This part is used as a Sampling Circuit. It consists of an
assembly of four ordinary 1N4001G diodes to produce a full
wave rectified signal.
D. Inverter
The output square wave from the comparator is inverted to
produce a pulse signal with a higher percentage duty cycle; this
will be the input to generate a Sawtooth signal.
E. Sawtooth Generator
A. Transformer
This device produces a relatively high AC input Voltage
(220Vrms).
B. SCR Bridge Rectifier
The output of the SCR firing circuit is used to trigger the
optocoupler. By controlling the 'turn-on' angle/time of SCR.
SCR firing controls the portion of rectified output that is made
available to contribute for DC output, it allows us to achieve
the desired output voltage.
C. Output circuit
A 10,000F Capacitor is used to filter the output waveform
of the SCR Bridge Rectifier to produce a finite output voltage.
The 100k resistor is used as the discharging component of the
capacitor the instant the circuit turned off.
IV. CONCLUSION
Building DC power supplies is a great way to discover the
joy of building your own electronics. This 48-volt 600-watt
regulated power supply provides steady, well-regulated, pure
DC for any small load requiring 48 volts to operate.
Some DC power supplies use AC mains electricity as an
energy source. Such power supplies will employ a transformer
to convert the input voltage to a lower AC voltage. A rectifier is
used to convert the transformer output voltage to a varying DC
voltage, which in turn is passed through a series of comparators
namely Zero Crossing Circuit, Pulse Inverter, Sawtooth
Generator and SCR Firing Circuit, respectively. The output
waveform is used to trigger the optocoupler, thus allowing the
current to flow through the SCR bridge rectifier. This will
SCR.
