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 […]
