3.1.3 POWER SUPPLY

An electrical device called a power supply provides electricity

to an electrical load. Converting electrical current from a
source to the appropriate voltage, current, and frequency for
the power load is a supply's main job. In order to power their
loads with wired connections, it transforms mains AC to low
voltage regulated DC power and wireless energy transmission.
The "Register Select" line is the RS line. The data is
interpreted as a command or special case when RS is low (0).
