To build a dc power supply purchase a 3 prong ac plug.
Build your own 5v power supply.
Transformer after the ac plug we need a step down transformer.
Easily buildable on breadboard or stripboard.
Add a zener diode and a resistor to your circuit to create a 5v power source and stabilize the voltage even more.
There are more efficient and complex power supplies in the world.
Please tell required spec of capacitors and circuit.
But if you make a power.
We have already made a few smps circuits earlier like.
It can also work with a two prong ac plug.
A regulated 12 volt power supply can not fully charge a discharged 12 volt battery but it makes a good float charger if the output voltage is correct again 13 5 13 8 volts for a 12 volt system.
Jameco sells power supply kits and more with a lifetime guarantee and same day shipping.
A switch mode power supply smps is an indispensable part of any electronic design.
First we need to select a suitable power source i m using a laptop power brick as this is capable of giving me 16 5v and has a power rating of 65w.
I want to make 5v dc supply so that i can run 3 dc motors in parallel having spec 5v each and max currrent rating 900ma but i have transformer of 3amp step down transformer 220v to 12v to run lm7805 ic whose max load current is 1a.
But having a 3 prong plug is better because ground provides better against possible electric fires.
It is used to convert mains high voltage ac to low voltage dc and it does it by first converting the mains ac to high voltage dc then switching.
Add a 5 1 v zener diode we used a 1n4733a in series with a resistor r zener we used a 68 ω and 680 ω resistor in series.
Build your own 5v 1a adjustable smps using a dead computer atx power supply power.
You could use any other power brick just make sure the brick is able to supply the voltages what your project needs.
A switch mode power supply smps is an indispensable part of any electronic design.
If not then tell.
There are easier ways to get a simple power supply like this one re using a wall wart for instance.

Dual rail variable supply both positive and negative voltages multiple fixed power outputs 3 3v 5v powered via batteries or wall wart.
We add new projects every month.
Make 5v 3a dc power supply.
It is used to convert mains high voltage ac to low voltage dc and it does it by first converting the mains ac to high voltage dc then switching the high voltage dc to generate the desired voltage.
