SMPS is the abbreviation of switching mode power supply, a kind of high-frequency power conversion device and a power supply device. Its function is to convert a level of voltage to the voltage or ...

When reaching for a power supply design it’s normal here in 2022 to reach for a switching design. They’re lightweight, very efficient, and often available off-the-shelf at reasonable prices. Their ...

Power supply design has traditionally placed a high priority on energy efficiency. The system and the end user will pay more if the power supply is inefficient and has non-negligible power losses. Let ...

Simply put, designing a power supply is a major undertaking. After making your build vs. buy decision, you face a myriad of circuit choices—more than you probably realize. Building a power supply used ...

The article provides details on device types such as dc supplies, converters, transformers and protection devices used in ...

GaN switches promise higher efficiency and higher power density in SMPS. This article discusses the readiness of this technology and its challenges, and provides an outlook on being a replacement for ...

This course introduces the basic concepts of switched-mode converter circuits for controlling and converting electrical power with high efficiency. Principles of converter circuit analysis are ...

Aside from apparently having both the ability to reproduce on their own and simultaneously never being around when you need one, USB chargers seem innocuous enough. The specs are simple: convert mains ...
