The main component of a Transformerless power supply circuit is Voltage dropping capacitor or X-rated capacitor, which are specially designed for AC mains. This X rated capacitor is connected in series of Phase line of AC, to drop the voltage. This type of Transformer less power supply is called Capacitor Power Supply.
