Description
The Circuitron 5302 PS-2 18V AC to 12V DC 1 Amp Regulated Power Supply is a regulated bench-style power supply module that takes a standard 18 V AC layout-accessory transformer output and produces a clean 12 V DC, 1 A supply.
What it does: Provides clean regulated 12 V DC for all Circuitron detection, automation, and lighting circuits. Use one PS-2 to feed several boards from a single AC transformer.
- Input: 18 V AC (standard layout accessory transformer)
- Output: 12 V DC, regulated, 1 A
- For: Powering AR-1 / AR-2 / DT-2 / BD-2 / ER-1 / ER-2 / 5820 TL-1 etc.
- Circuitron SKU: 5302 (Walthers 800-5302)
Tip: Use one PS-2 per group of nearby circuits rather than running long DC wires from a single supply.
About Circuitron: A USA-made model-railroad electronics specialist (Maryville, Illinois) founded in the 1970s. Famous for the industry-standard Tortoise slow-motion under-table switch machine and its surface-mount cousin the SMAIL. The full range covers detection (block detectors, Opto-Sensor grade-crossing logic), automation (auto-reversers, external relays, twin-coil alternators), signal / lighting electronics (alternating flashers, ditch-light oscillators, strobe drivers), power supplies, and a complete set of Tortoise / SMAIL replacement parts plus the solderless ZipZ connection system. Most circuits work with AC, DC, or DCC track power unless specifically noted otherwise.
