Hi everybody,

I need some help, I need a capasitive circuit that converts 220V AC -to- 5V DC .
Can you help me finding this? Or can you give me an idea to construct the circuit?

Thanks a lot..

Try this link:
**broken link removed**
To increase the output current to 100mA you will have to use capacitor of ≈1.5µF ..
Also, for 5V output you can use a small 5V (78L05) voltage regulator (preferred option) or a 5.1V zener diode ..
