Power supplies are the backbone of most DIY electronics projects. Whether it's powering a microcontroller, sensors, or communication modules, having a reliable and efficient power supply is critical. One of the most commonly used power supply configurations is the AC-to-DC converter, which turns AC power from a wall outlet into usable DC voltage for electronic circuits. However, one of the challenges faced when designing such circuits is ensuring that the power supply is efficient and that it operates in compliance with regulations regarding power quality, specifically Power Factor . In this project, we will design a 12V DC power supply using the ICE2PCS01GXUMA1 , a Power Factor Correction (PFC) integrated circuit (IC). This component is designed to improve the efficiency of power conversion by correcting the power factor and reducing harmonic distortion. This project will not only provide a stable 12V output for your DIY projects but will also ensure that the power supply meets...
