SMPS Halogen Lamp Transformer Circuit
One of the best substitutes for traditional light transformer for halogen bulbs is the electronic halogen transformer. It can also be used with non-halogen bulbs and any other form of resistive loads that does not run on RF current. Written and Submitted By: Dhrubajyoti Biswas Halogen Lamp Working Principle The electronic halogen lamp transformer works […]
How Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) Circuits Work
SMPS is the acronym of the word Switch Mode Power Supply. The name clearly suggests that the concept has something or entirely to do with pulses or switching of the employed devices. I have explained how SMPS adapters work for converting mains voltage to a lower DC voltage. Advantage of SMPS Topology In SMPS adapters […]
Cheapest SMPS Circuit Using MJE13005
The explained circuit in this article is probably the simplest and the cheapest, since it employs minimum number of components and the making of the circuit is very straightforward. Circuit Operation Generally SMPS topology involves some fixed standard stages and criteria. Thgey may be listed in the following manner: The first stage which is the […]
SMPS 2 x 50V 350W Circuit for Audio Power Amplifiers
This article will illustrate a simple procedure to devise an unregulated 50V switching SMPS symmetric power supply of 350W. This unit can be substituted with the standard audio amplifier power supply to reduce expense and also the weight. The proposed power supply works as a half-bridge with no regulation. Written and Submitted by: Dhrubajyoti Biswas […]
LCD Monitor SMPS Circuit
This power supply functions with a broad input voltage range from 90 to 265 V AC and produces a dual output in the form of 5 V / 2.5 A, and 14.5 V / 1 A. The Circuit Layout The great aspect of this source is its minimal power consumption, optimized power consumption in idle […]
