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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) continue to replace linear-regulator types in a host of applications. As the need for more efficient electronics accelerates and as a result of their size, weight, ...

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 ...
