Dear All hello,
I have a question about a power supply transformer with center tap.
I would like to use it with a bridge rectifier but I would like to have the option to drop half-voltage with a switch.
I am thinking to use one end of secondary to one end of the bridge and to select between the other end for full voltage or the center tap for half voltage.
Is that correct?
Does this if correct create any other problem to bridge or filter capacitors?
The transformer is 225-0-225 at 250mA. The circuit I want to supply consumes about 150 mA .
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards.
Dimi
