The transformer steps down the 220 V a/c. into 12 V a/c.

Fig 4.1

The ripple of the D.C. voltage is smoothened using a filter capacitor of 1000
microF 25V. A filter capacitor is connected at the rectifier output and the d.c
voltage is obtained across the capacitor.

The out terminal of the IC i.e. pin 2 provides a regular output. The
third terminal is connected to ground. With adequate heat sinking they can
deliver output currents in excess of 1 A. These regulators have internal thermal
overload protection. It uses output transistor safe area compensation and the
output voltage offered is in 2% and 4% tolerance.
