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 circuit of power supply for PC works with a mains voltage of 230VAC to produce an output of 13.8V at 5A due to rectification. This project came upon the modification of a PC switch mode power ...

Economy of scale is a wonderful thing, take the switch-mode power supply as an example. Before the rise of the PC, a decent multi-voltage, high current power supply would be pretty expensive. But PCs ...

If you're in the process of building your PC, one of the most important components to consider is which power supply unit you will choose for your new computer. While shopping, you might see the word ...

Ideally switch-mode power supplies would behave like mathematical models. But since they don’t you need to perform thorough characterization and troubleshooting. Fortunately, modern oscilloscopes are ...
