This is simple Ac To Dc converter circuit diagram. By coupling two back-to-back diodes in series with an ac power circuit, a voltage of about 1.4 Vpp can be obtained. This voltage is useful for exciting the primary coil of a small transformer. The voltage induced in the secondary coil can then be rectified and used to power solid-state control circuits. The forward-voltage drop of the diodes is inherently constant and stable over a wide range of ac-circuit power variations.
The resulting voltage developed across the transformer windings is also free from variation that might be caused by changes in the circuit`s current or voltage. In the circuit, a lamp (LMP-1) is connected to the primary ac input line (Ll and L2) through a pair of inverse-parallel-connected power diodes (Dl and D2). As power flows to the lamp, a drop of about 0.7 V is alternatively developed across each of the diodes.
This voltage feeds the primary of a small transformer (Tl). T1 can be a small 8- to 500- transistor radio output, etc. This will deliver about 11 Vpp across its secondary winding. LMP1 can be a small 120-V lamp of 5 to 25 W, etc.
