Typically, a power supply is comprised of a power transformer, which is then followed by a conventional bridge rectifier. The bridge rectifier is constructed using four diodes that are interconnected ...

I have a Sears deep-cycle lead-acid 12v battery already which I've only used once or twice a year for certain power applications. I was thinking of purchasing an identical model and wiring it in ...

To measure a zener diode’s breakdown voltage, you need a dc voltage source whose voltage exceeds that of the zener voltage. In Figure 1, resistor R SER provides voltage drop between V IN and V ZEN. In ...
