From the project

A full-wave bridge rectifier circuit designed in KiCad, converting AC mains input to filtered DC output with a power indicator LED.

A full-wave bridge rectifier circuit designed in KiCad, converting AC mains input to filtered DC output with a power indicator LED.

This PCB implements a classic full-wave bridge rectifier using four 1N4007 diodes, a 1000µF smoothing capacitor, and a power-on LED indicator. Designed as a foundational power electronics project to learn KiCad schematic capture and PCB layout.
