Here I have explained about a simple switch mode power supply (SMPS) circuit which is capable of delivering 3.3V, 5V, 9V at around 800mA from a Mains input range of 100V to 285V, with a complete isolation. The functioning of the proposed 3.3V, 5V, 9V flyback SMPS Circuit may be understood by going through the […]

How Buck Converters Work
The article below presents a comprehensive know how regarding how buck converters work. As the name suggests, a buck converter is designed to oppose or restrict an input current causing an output that may be much lower than the supplied input. In other words it can be considered a step down converter which could be […]
LM317 Variable Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS)
So far in this website we have studied LM317 based linear power supply circuits, here I have explained how an LM317 can be executed as a variable switch mode power or SMPS with zero loss. LM317 as Linear Regulator We all know that an LM317 IC is internally designed to work as a linear voltage […]
SMPS Welding Inverter Circuit
If you are looking for an option to replace conventional welding transformer, the welding inverter is the best choice. Welding inverter is handy and runs on DC current. The current control is maintained through potentiometer. By: Dhrubajyoti Biswas Using Two Switch Topology When developing a welding inverter, I applied forward inverter with two switches topology. […]
Ferrite Core Material Selection Guide for SMPS
In this post I have explained how to select ferrite core material with the correct specifications for ensuring proper compatibility with a given SMPS circuit design Why Ferrite Core Ferrite is a wonderful core substance for transformers, inverters and inductors in the frequency spectrum 20 kHz to 3 MHz, owing to the benefits of reduced […]
SMPS Voltage Stabilizer Circuit
In this article I have explained a solid state switch-mode mains voltage stabilizer circuit without relays, using a ferrite core boost converter and a couple of half-bridge mosfet driver circuits. The idea was requested by Mr. McAnthony Bernard. Technical Specifications Of late i started looking at voltage stabilizers use in house hold to regulate utility […]
