The document proposes a project to design a 12V DC power supply. It provides background that many electrical devices require 12V DC power but receive 240V AC, so a converter is needed. The objectives are to apply skills from an industrial electronics course to create a power supply by: 1) stepping down the 240V AC voltage, 2) converting it to DC, 3) smoothing ripples with a filter, and 4) regulating the voltage to 12V DC. The topic approval committee member Engr. Mirasol Dilay approved the proposed topic.

Proposed Title

12V DC POWER SUPPLY

Background of the Proposed Topic:

Every electrical and electronic device that we use in our day-to-day life will require a power supply. In general,
we use an AC supply of 240V 50Hz, but this power has to be changed into the required form with required values or
voltage range for providing power supply to different types of devices. There are various types of power electronic
converters such as step-down converter, step-up converter, voltage stabilizer, AC to DC converter, DC to DC converter,
DC to AC converter, and so on. For example, consider the microcontrollers that are used frequently for developing
many embedded systems’ based projects and kits used in real-time applications. These microcontrollers require a 12V
DC supply, so the AC 240V needs to be converted into 12V DC using the step-down converter in their power supply
circuit.

12V power supplies (or 12VDC power supplies) are one of the most common power supplies in use today. In
general, a 12VDC output is obtained from a 120VAC or 240VAC input using a combination of transformers, diodes and
transistors. 12V power supplies can be of two types: 12V regulated power supplies, and 12V unregulated power
supplies.12V regulated power supplies come in three styles: Switching regulated AC to DC, Linear regulated AC to DC,
and Switching regulated DC to DC.

Typical applications for 12 VDC power supplies:

 Computer Peripherals and Networking Applications


 Telecommunications and Fiber optic Network
 Voice, Data and Analog Communications
 Universities and Educational Facilities
 Instrumentation and Electronics
 Utility and Power Industries
 Data Acquisition
 Medical
 Military
 Motor control
Objectives and Methodology:

The objective of this project based learning is to apply the learning and skills acquired from the course
Industrial Electronics in creating dc power supply.

Steps to Convert 240V AC to 12V DC


1. Step Down the Voltage Level
2. Convert AC to DC
3. Smoothing the Ripples using Filter
4. Regulating an unidentified amount of DC Voltage into 12V DC using Voltage Regulator
