INTRODUCTION:-

An AC to DC convertor is an electronic circuit that convert alternating current (AC) from the main supply into direct current (DC) ,Which is required most electronic device. In this project ,we design a PCB for simple AC to DC conveter using transformer,bridge rectifier,filter capacitor ,and voltage regulator

Supplies

CREAT SCHMATIC:-

  1. press A
  2. Search the components
  3. Arrange all the component as per image
  4. Connect component using wire (press w)
  5. Then complete the Annotate .why do the Annotate if we same component multiple time that time we giving numbering to echa components.
  6. check the (ERC) Electrical rule check to check the error in circuit
  7. Assigned Footprint simply press F on the symbol
  8. label the any name or text anything you want

ADD GROUND PLANE:

  1. Select fill zone
  2. Choose GND net
  3. Fill the PCB area
  4. Press the B
  5. Add logo
  6. Check 3D view
  7. To hide the name hide the F.fab

BENEFITE:-

  1. Better grounding
  2. Reduced Electrical noise
  3. Easier routing


WORKING

WORKING:-

  1. The transformer step down 230v AC to 12v
  2. The bridge rectifier convert AC into pulsating DC
  3. The filter capicitor smooth the DC voltage
  4. The LM7805 Regulator provide stable 5v DC output
  5. The LED indicate power Availability

APPLICATION

  1. Arduino power supply
  2. IOT Project
  3. sensor circuit
  4. Embeeded system
  5. Educational electronic project

CONCLSION

CONCLUSION:-

This AC to DC convertor PCB provides a compact a compact reliable power supply solution.By design the circuit in PCB form ,The System became safer,more organized,and suitable for long-time use in electronic project
