This document teaches the users to determine the characteristics of step-down DC-DC (buck) switched mode power supply through understanding and exploring its voltage and current waveforms. Both the ...

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.

How switch-mode power supplies changed the power-supply design space. The isolation factor in power supplies: galvanic isolation vs. non-isolated. Most common non-isolated topologies. This series ...

The common type of power supply used with computers and other electronic equipment. The "switching" comes from switching a transistor on and off to create square waves for input to a transformer. For ...

Few pieces of gear are more basic to electronics than some kind of power supply. It might be a box of batteries, or it might be a high-end lab supply. [Andreas] took a DPS5005 power supply module that ...

Wall-mounted AC Adaptors, sometimes called wall-warts, have been a standard way of providing electricity to low-power devices since the 1970s, powering everything from clock radios to Wi-Fi routers to ...

For one-off projects or prototyping, it’s not too hard to find a wall wart or power supply to send a few joules of energy from the wall outlet to your circuit. Most of these power supplies use a ...
