About the Ac to dc converter PCB

Ac to dc converter is an open source PCB design by hammadurrehman2006, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 47.5 × 34 mm, with 10 components from 6 distinct parts.

By type, the board carries 5 diodes, 2 connectors, 2 resistors and 1 capacitor.

From the project

A collection of KiCad PCB designs developed during my Electronic Engineering degree (2024-28). Includes university projects, personal experiments, and custom components—featuring schematics, layouts, Gerber files, and documentation. Open-source hardware for education, collaboration, and real-world manufacturing.

This is Day 1 of my 10-Day PCB Design Challenge, where I design PCB projects starting from simple circuits and gradually moving towards more complex ones.

For today’s design, I created a single-layer PCB for an AC to DC Converter using KiCad.
