I'm planing to do the Ultra Clean Power Supply!
I've looked at mostly all the topics about that projects and it got something pretty clear, we can use 12V adapter

I need to clarify some little details!

1 - Will my adaptor be ok if it has this mention  "12VAC 1A Center Tap Transformer 6-0-6"  ?

2 - Since it is center tapped, do I ground the CT  ?

3 - If I use this adaptor, do I need to change something in the layout of the other components (or components itselves) of the project  ?

Thanks

Okay, I've got the answer by myself for # 1 and 2.

What about question # 3  ?

Then again, answered it myself by doing the project!

So if you have a center tapped transformer, don't solder the CT to anything and you don't need to change the other components if you use a 12 volts transformer!

Thanks anyway!

PS  great project (Ultra Clean Power Supply) easy to build and very compact!!
