I need to know if LM2596T-3.3 voltage regulator works with AC electricity. Datasheets doesn't specify the type of current.
Are you taking about 60hz (or 50hz) power line AC? It is unusual to see a need for 12V to 5V ac. What is the application?I would need an voltage regulator to change from 12V AC to 5V AC. Do you know a model?
It's called a transformer.I can't find AC-AC step-down.
That doesn't sound right. I though that issue was settled at the end of the 19th century where Edison's DC power distribution lost to Westinghouse's AC power distribution. Why would any country distribute DC Power?In my country on the power outlets we have 220 V DC ...
Now, why would a Laptop Charger give 12 Volts AC ? Or is it 12 Volts DC?In my country on the power outlets we have 220 V DC. I have an old laptop charger that take this 220 V DC and outputs 12 V AC. However I have a device that needs 5V AC. I need to step-down the 12V AC to 5V AC. I can't find AC-AC step-down.
