2. Power supply unit (computer) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply_unit_(computer)

   The desktop computer power supply converts the alternating current (AC) from a wall socket of mains electricity to a low-voltage direct current (DC) to operate the motherboard, processor and peripheral devices. Several direct-current voltages are required, and they must be regulated with some accuracy to provide stable operation of the computer.

3. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

   Fixed-voltage power supplies like these and AC adapters are optimized with the aim to support high currents per physical space at a given constant voltage. Due to optimization for a specific voltage rather than a range, they tend to be more compact at a similar output power support. Mobile phone power adaptors; Regulated power supplies in ...

4. Power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply

   An external power supply, AC adapter or power brick, is a power supply located in the load's AC power cord that plugs into a wall outlet; a wall wart is an external supply integrated with the outlet plug itself. These are popular in consumer electronics because of their safety; the hazardous 120 or 240 volt main current is transformed down to a ...

   The X-connector here provides 3.5 and 2.5 mm phone plugs and two sizes of coaxial power connector Universal laptop power supply with adjustable voltage between 12 and 24 volts. External power adapters can fail, or can become separated from the product they are intended to power. Consequently, there is a market for replacement adapters.

7. Switched-mode power supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

   Stand-alone switched-mode power supply An adjustable switched-mode power supply for laboratory use. A switched-mode power supply (SMPS), also called switching-mode power supply, switch-mode power supply, switched power supply, or simply switcher, is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently.
