It depends on what you want to use it for. Assuming you will be working with a 110 volt AC input and want a 9 or 12 volt DC power supply, you will need a transformer to reduce the AC voltage, then you will need a rectifier to convert it to pulsating DC (a full wave rectifier works better than a half wave rectifier) and a capacitor to smooth out the pulses. Some devices like solenoids and valve actiuators work well with pulsating DC but some applications demand pure DC. That is the basic design of most power supplies. You may need to regulate the voltage which is required in some applications.
What else can I help you with?
Why does an operational amplifier need a power supply?
It doesn't. You can make a differential amplifier with a single power supply.
Can you use a power supply with more amps and not fry the unit?
you will need to be allot more specific on what you are trying to do here. what is the difference in amps. what is the device Generally speaking it is good practice to only use the power supply that the device is rated for. the biggest issue you will have is this Power = voltage * current (simple version) if the power supply you had was 12v at 1 amps then you ca supply 12Watts of power if the power supply you had was 12v at 10 amps then you can supply 120Watts of power Just because you can supply 10 amps, and all you need is one, means your power supply is bigger than it needs to be. The device will draw what it is intended to draw. Just make sure the voltage matches.
Full form of DC power supply?
DC Power is Direct Current Power Supply.
What are advantages power supply in computer?
The power supply converts the high voltage (e.g. 120VAC in US, 240VAC in Europe) alternating current house electricity supply down to the various different low voltage direct current supplies needed by different devices that make up the computer. These low voltage direct current supplies are tightly regulated in the power supply circuitry to prevent transients in the house electric supply from perturbing the computer's electronics as well as to compensate for variations in power demand as the different devices that make up the computer operate.
How do you make power supply variable?
A variable power supply is one whose output voltage (or current) can be adjusted and therefore set to a desired figure. They are used in development and design odf circuits, eliminating the need for possibly many power supplies of different output voltages. Once a circuit is connected to it, the output would not normally be changed.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of variable power supply?
A: A variable power supply has no disadvantage since it can replace a fix power supply. The disadvantage will rest with the additional cost to make one.
What is the best choice for a replacement power supply for power supply ratings?
You need to make sure you buy a power supply that is rated for your motherboard. Common ratings are 350w, 400w and 500w.
How is water a power supply?
Water is a power supply because it is used in power plants. The water is inside the boiler and the boiler is heated to make the water turn into steam. The steam is what makes the power.
Why does an operational amplifier need a power supply?
It doesn't. You can make a differential amplifier with a single power supply.

Apple computer can run on 220V from 110V power supply?
No, of course not. The power supply needs to match the 'wall power' to provide the proper voltages to the motherboard. On the bright side, most power supplies sold in the US have a slide switch to select between 110/220 volts input. It may be as simple as moving a little red switch on the back of the power supply to configure your power supply to 110 v.
What is the power of a power supply?
power supply is a device that supplies electric power to electrical load
Regulated power supply?
all about regulated power supply
What are advantages of power supply?
Advantage of regulated power supply.
What power supply should you replace a 175 watt power supply with?
any power supply with at least 175 watts
What is the price of the cheapest variable power supply?
The cheapest price the writer was able to obtain for a variable power supply was $45.45 for those customers searching in Canada. If one wants to make a home-made variable power supply, it is possible to buy all the needed parts for about $15.00
