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 ...

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 ...

Switched-mode power supplies are found in electronics all around us. They provide the DC voltages that power our computers, cell phones, chargers, appliances, and myriad other electronic devices.

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

Today, 80% of all input/output (I/O) devices in automation applications are supplied with 24VDC power. The second most popular voltage is 120VAC, which is used on 15% of all I/Os. Over the past decade ...

Reduction methods for conducted and radiated EMI. Dithering switching voltage regulator frequency to mitigate EMI. Applying an EMI filter. Modern electronic power system architectures are becoming ...

Meanwhile, a compact board will have more wattage to dissipate per unit area. The power supplies are spread around the board with dedicated regulators assigned to each chip even when the voltage ...

“They don’t build ’em like they used to.” There’s plenty of truth to that old saw, especially when a switch-mode power supply from the 1940s still works with its original parts. But when said power ...

Perhaps the simplest way to regulate a DC voltage is using a voltage divider and/or an active device like a Zener diode. Besides simplicity, they have the additional advantage of not being ...
