Make this 220V to 12V SMPS Using UC2842 IC
This UC2842 IC based SMPS design is simple, cheap and efficient kind of isolated power supply. We can use it in off-line stuff like AC-DC adapters, battery chargers and all those small power supplies. What is cool? It takes that high voltage AC then steps it down and then keeps input and output fully isolated […]
The Role of Inductor Coil in SMPS
The most crucial element of a switched mode converter or an SMPS is the inductor. Energy is stored in the form of a magnetic field in the core material of the inductor during the brief ON period (ton) switched through the connected switching element such as MOSFET or a BJT. How the Inductor Works in […]
