I'd like to have two seperate potentials relative to ground using a 12.6V CT transformer. One will be used for 5V with a 7805 and the other 12V using a 7812. The ground is common to both circuits.
I've never seen a center tapped transformer used in this manner, but in the simulator everything appears to work correctly without issues. The center-tapped lead won't require a diode because it obtains recitifcation through the outer winding legs going to ground.
Will this work in reality or am I missing something?
