Simulate the circuit
I used Multisim to assemble the conversion stages and examine how the circuit should respond before moving to physical hardware.
AC-to-DC Power Supply
I carried this circuit from simulation to a physical board, comparing expected behavior with measurements taken from real components.

Project overview
I developed a circuit that converts AC to DC using a transformer, diodes, capacitors, and resistors. I first simulated the design in Multisim, then built and tested it using laboratory equipment.
Engineering approach
From idea to working system.
Build and measure
After simulation, I implemented the circuit on a board and used an oscilloscope and multimeter to inspect its real output.
Test operating behavior
I evaluated circuit behavior under different frequencies and power outputs, connecting component-level theory to measured results.
