One type of diode, the zener, is designed to break down at a specific voltage and conduct heavily when reverse-biased. The zener is normally used as a shunt regulator in series with a fixed resistance. When the reverse breakdown voltage is reached, the zener conducts, and the resulting current flow through the resistance causes a voltage drop across the resistor, lowering (and regulating) the voltage output.
The regulation, while not super accurate and also having a temperature coefficient, is still sufficient for many purposes.
Generally, there will be a 12+ volt rail, a 5+ volt rail and often a 3+ volt rail.
Same as dual rail : some form of power turns the wheels that hold the train up. It's just that you can design a monorail with side curtains that hide the wheels from view.
By using a center tap, with the tap connected to ground you can use one winding for the positive AC swing and the other winding (both relative to the center-tap) for the negative swing. Thus, when the secondary windings can be connected to the AC inputs of a full-wave-bridge rectifier to harvest a bi-polar DC power source. i.e. - a positive DC voltage 'rail' AND a negative DC voltage rail, say for example you have a 24VAC center tapped secondary of a 110VAC transformer. With a full-wave bridge, the center tap becomes the circuit 'ground' (aka 'return') in a DC circuit.
The following describes a method for using the Power Recorder to monitor and log the ripple voltage on a direct rectified DC power rail. # Set the Recorder to "Split Single Phase" # Connect N & G to the DC rail negative # Connect A to any mains input phase # Connect B to the DC rail positive
I f an amplifier has a great gain lets say 1000 and the power supply is 10 v then 10 mv will saturate the amplifier to either rail some amps has 10mv just in offset voltage

The most commonly used rail on a power supply is the +12V rail. It is primarily utilized to power components such as CPUs, GPUs, and other peripherals in computers and electronic devices. The +12V rail is essential for providing the necessary voltage to support high-performance components, making it a critical aspect of modern power supply design.
Best left to a trained technician.
Generally, there will be a 12+ volt rail, a 5+ volt rail and often a 3+ volt rail.
For a god quality PC power supply; 120mV on the 12V rail 50mV on the 5V and 3.3V rails

A voltmeter will show the voltage on the rail and a technician will know how to use one.
Schematic is just another name for a wiring diagram. It is usually drawn out in a ladder diagram format. The left ladder rail representing the Positive side of power supply and right ladder rail representing the Negative side of the power supply.
The 12 volt rail on a power supply is a circuit that provides a steady flow of 12 volts to components like the CPU, GPU, and other high-powered devices in a computer. It is essential for powering these components efficiently and reliably. Variations in voltage output or instability on the 12 volt rail can impact the performance and stability of the connected hardware.
The simplest way is that most power supplies have a built-in fan (or several) to keep them cool. If this fan is blocked, or the case airflow is going opposite to the power supply airflow (which typically pulls air from the case, out the back) then it can cause overheating. Lowering the power draw on the power supply will also reduce the amount of heat it produces, especially on the 12v rail.
