Description
The 12V–600mA AC Step-Down Transformer (Center-Tapped) is designed to safely reduce 220V AC mains voltage to a usable low-voltage AC output for electronic circuits.
Featuring a center-tapped secondary winding, this transformer allows flexible voltage configurations such as 6V-0-6V or 12V AC, depending on your wiring setup. It is especially useful for building dual-rail power supplies (+V / 0V / –V) and full-wave rectifier circuits.
Constructed with a laminated iron core and high-quality copper windings, it delivers stable output voltage, good efficiency, and reliable long-term performance. Perfect for workshop builds, classroom labs, and DIY electronics projects.
