    Ere is an efficient 4-stage stabilised power supply unit for testing electronic circuits. It provides well regulated and stabilised output, which is 18V, 500mA step-down transformer to generate 18V AC. A rectifier diode comprising diodes D1 and D2 provides 18V DC, which is smoothed by capacitor C1 and given to the combination of regulator ICs. If there is a short circuit at the output, LED2 glows to activate the piez
