The first power supply was created in the 1920s, as devices used for powering residential and commercial radios. Many changes have occurred over the decades from using vacuum tube linear regulators, to the use of semiconductors, and eventually fault tolerant devices.
The power supply's power-good signal prevents a computer from operating on improper voltages and potentially getting damaged. Typically, a computer will only start up after receiving the power-good signal.
Typically computers are connected to a UPS. Rarely they are connected to direct power supply. The UPS may provide 110V or 220V supply oscillating at 50Hz and 60Hz. These values depend on the particular country's power supply standards. The electricity supply then goes to SMPS in case of desktops. SMPS is a control circuit that switches the load current rapidly on and off in order to stabilise the output voltage. Typically different components get different levels of voltages. It may range from 1.5V to 12V. Note that computer components run on DC supply not AC supply so it is converted by SMPS. In case of laptops the AC supply is converted to DC and then given to battery which further supplies the laptop components.
The flashing amber light on a Dell PC means there is a power problem between your power supply and motherboard. Chances are its the power supply, but it could be the motherboard too. Typically this will happen when the PC is put under high-heat, bad ventilation, or dirty/dusty vents.
UPS = Uninterruptible Power Supply
When the vehicle is under acceleration it doesn't supply vacuum. The vacuum canister or reservoir holds a vacuum supply to operate vacuum operated accessories until the engine regains vacuum.
In vacuum tube devices, one electrode of the tube (the filament) needs low voltage at relatively high current, while another one (the plate) needs a high voltage at relatively low current. It's hard to build a single power supply to provide both of these, so the filament is usually supplied from its own separate transformer. Nobody has worried about things like this since a short time after transistors came along.
Vacuum lines supply vacuum for various functions.
You can get antenna amplifiers online at amazon.com, www.dennysantennaservice.com, or in person at places like Best Buy, RadioShack, or local visual and audio supply stores.
Amplifiers for a bass guitar may be purchased at Sweetwater, Musicians Friend, American Musical Supply, zZounds, Guitar Center, and Full Compass Systems.
DC power supply is used to power the IC's and other active and passive devices.It is provide to amplify the weak signal with the help of amplifiers.

The gill filament appears pink because it is filled with blood. Gill fllaments are found on fish and other gilled creatures and provide oxygen to their blood supply.
That is the vacuum supply for the HVAC control.
Higher input current means higher voltage. A bulb contains one filament (tungsten) when input power supply passing through this filament, the filament gets hot and makes a red color and then yellow. This filament needs only electrons flow, but if we are operating higher current bulb efficiency will down, when the filament burns out.
In order for a light bulb to light up, the filament and the base need to be connected. The filament is the part that emits light when electricity passes through it, and the base is where the electrical contacts are made to supply power to the filament.
You may have a vacuum supply problem especially under acceleration. Check the vacuum supply hoses under the hood, from the engine, to the vacuum reservoir and through the firewall. You may find a cracked, split, pinched, collapsed hose causing decreased vacuum supply to the HVAC controls.
