Editor's Note: Here's another take on the transformerless AC line power supply, which finds use in some well-insulated, low-power devices. Our technical reviewer pointed out that C ac should be an ...

Power control using the linear region of an active device, such as a MOSFET, is not an efficient option. However if the range of power control is restricted to the lower or upper end of the range, ...
