Most electronic circuits require a DC power supply, which is obtained by converting the AC mains supply to DC using a rectifier. There are different types of rectifiers including half wave, full wave, and bridge rectifiers that convert the alternating current to direct current by only allowing current to flow in one direction. A specification sheet provides details on linear voltage regulators like the 78XX series that are commonly used to provide stable DC voltages for circuits.
