Low-power circuits commonly use transformerless power supplies. However, the use of earth grounds in many of these circuits creates a serious problem that is often ignored. The very popular Microchip ...

Disclaimer: This circuit is an industrial upgrade for the capacitor-based supply solution, it is connected to the 220V-AC Mains, non-galvanically isolated. if you are not familiar with the electrical ...

This circuit will supply up to about 20ma at 12 volts. It uses capacitive reactance instead of resistance; and it doesn’t generate very much heat.The circuit draws about 30ma AC. Always use a fuse and ...
