Power supply is needed for all of electronic circuits. Say you have a 12V power supply and you want to use it as a 5V power supply. Then use this 12v to 5v dc-dc converter circuit diagram to convert 12 volt to 5 volt. This DC converter circuit provide 5V, 1Amp at output. Here is the small schematic circuit diagram of 12volt to 5volt converter.
Circuit Diagram of 12VDC to 5VDC converter:
