What function does a capacitor auto-discharger perform in a power supply circuit, and how does it work? What are its fundamental building blocks, and can engineers develop a capacitor auto-discharge module on their own? What are basic considerations for component selection? T. K. Hareendran provides answers to these questions in his profile story for this design circuit.
