    Power supply receives power from an electrical outlet or voltage source and converts it to DC. There are two main types: AC power supplies which provide power from outlets to devices like lamps and fans, and DC power supplies which use batteries or regulators to power devices like phones, laptops, and TVs. A power supply works by lowering the input voltage, rectifying it to DC, filtering it, and regulating the output voltage. Common applications include charging batteries in phones and laptops using adapters that convert AC to DC.

    Power Supply

    Definition of Power Supply


    Power supply is an electronic device that supplies electric power to another
    electronics devices. Power supply receives power from an electrical outlet or voltage
    source from PLN, and converts the current from AC (alternating current) to DC (direct
    current). In general, power supply has many function to support our daily activities. For
    example: Power supply used as voltage source to turn on the lamp, fan, television,
    laptop, radio, etc.
    Power supply is the most important part in almost all electronics device, because
    the power supply is a hardware device that serves voltage supply to another electronic
    components. If the power supply doesnt exist in electronics devices, thats mean the
    electronic device also cant be used. Because the electronic devices do not get supply
    voltage from the power supply.
    Types of Power Supply
    In general, there are two kinds of power supply, namely: AC Power Supply and DC
    Power Supply. And now I will tell you about it one by one.
    1. AC Power Supply
    The symbol of AC power supply is a circle with sine wave in center and has
    two terminals. The example of AC power supply is power from an electrical outlet
    (in Indonesia called PLN). The standard voltages are applied in Indonesia for
    alternating electric one phase is 220 V, while for alternating current three phase is
    380 V, with frequency of 50 Hz / 60 Hz.
    The AC power supply usually used to turn on the lamp, fan, air conditioner,
    etc. In general, an AC voltage source can be found in Electric current from PLN,
    Generator (Genset), and Wind Turbine.
    2. DC Power Supply
    The symbol of DC power supply is circle that has two terminals, namely
    positive pole and negative pole. The DC power supply usually used to turn on the
    television, radio, dvd player, etc. There are many types of DC power supply, namely
    battery and regulator power supply.
    a. Battery
    Baterry is a device that converts stored chemical energy to electrical
    energy. Baterry usually used to turn on the smartphone, laptop, TV remote, etc.
    Batteries are commonly used as energy sources in many household and
    industrial applications. A battery has polarity, positive pole and negative pole.

    So before use battery for electronic device, we must check the polarity of
    battery and attach the battery correctly.
    There are two types of batteries, namely: Primary batteries (disposable
    batteries), which are designed to be used once and discarded. Secondary
    batteries (rechargeable batteries), which are designed to be recharged and used
    multiple times.
    b. Regulator Power Supply
    Regulator power supply is electronic instrument that can supply the power
    as we want. This types of power supply can change AC (alternating current)
    voltage to DC (direct current) voltage. This power supply uses some electronic
    component to control the output voltage of power supply.
    There are many parts that used in regulator power supply circuit, such as:
    Transformer as a lowering voltage, Diode as a rectifier, Capacitor as a filter, and
    IC Regulator as a voltage stabilizer.
    Working Principle of Power Supply

    Working Principle of Power Supply


    In general, the working principle of a power supply can be described as follows:
    1. Input Voltage
    Input voltage is the part that is known as the stop contacts, the connector outlet
    is an AC voltage source of electricity that is used to distribute voltage on the input
    voltage via a cable adapter. The input voltage consists of jack, plug, and cable input.
    2. Lowering Voltage
    Lowering voltage is the part that serves to lowering the voltage from 220 volts
    AC into a lower voltage, for example 3 volts, 6 volts, 9 volts or 12 volts. In this part
    used a type of step-down transformer as the main component.
    3. Rectifier
    Rectifier is the part that can convert AC voltage into DC voltage. The main
    components used are diodes. Diodes are used as much as 4 pieces and assembled to
    form a diode bridge, so as to generate a DC voltage (-) and (+).
    4. Filter and Voltage Stabilizer

    Filter is the part that serves to eliminate the AC voltage that is still contained in
    the DC voltage. The effect of passing this AC voltage is a wave of noise. The
    components needed to make this filter part are capacitor and IC voltage stabilizer.
    5. Output Voltage
    Output voltage is the part that serves as the output voltage in the form of a DC
    voltage. The magnitude of this DC voltage output according to the output voltage of
    the step-down transformer and another components used settings.
    Applications of Power Supply

    Power supply used as Handphone Adapter

    Power supply used as Laptop Adapter


    In general, power supply has many function to support our daily activities. For
    example: Power supply used as voltage source to turn on the lamp, fan, television,
    laptop, radio, etc. And now, I will tell you about one of the application of power supply
    that usually used for charging battery that called Adapter.
    Adapter or power supply is an electronic circuit that serves to convert alternating
    current into direct current. Adapter has four main parts in order to produce a stable DC
    current. The fourth part of them is Transformer, Rectifier, Filter and Voltage Regulator.

    Adapter is an electronic circuit that works by converting a high AC voltage into


    low DC voltage. Adaptor is an electronic device that has function to charge the energy in
    battery, or we can called as a battery charger. The device that usually charge by adaptor
    like a laptop or handphone.
