A power supply unit (PSU) converts mains AC to low-voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a desktop computer. Modern personal computers universally use switched-mode power supplies. Some power supplies have a manual switch for selecting input voltage, while others automatically adapt to the main voltage.
Was the first scientific calculator to fly in space in 1973. [5] HP-35 calculators were carried on the Skylab 3 and Skylab 4 flights, between July 1973 and February 1974. [6] Is the first pocket calculator with a numeric range that covered 200 decades (more precise 199, ±10 ±99). [5]
Boost converter from a TI calculator, generating 9 V from 2.4 V provided by two AA rechargeable cells. A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage , while decreasing current , from its input ( supply ) to its output ( load ).
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. Like other power supplies, a SMPS transfers power from a DC or AC source (often mains ...
The input is left side, the output with load is right side. The switch is typically a MOSFET, IGBT, or BJT transistor. A buck converter or step-down converter is a DC-to-DC converter which decreases voltage, while increasing current, from its input (supply) to its output (load). It is a class of switched-mode power supply.
Power supply. 2×1.5V AA cell batteries or power supply. Weight. 6 oz (170 g) to 8 oz (230 g) Dimensions. 141×75×29mm. The HP-30 or Spice series are RPN Scientific hand-held calculators introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1978. Some models are programmable. The HP-32E.
width: 3.2 inches (81 mm), height: 0.7–1.4 inches (18–36 mm) The HP-67 is a magnetic card-programmable handheld calculator, introduced by Hewlett-Packard in 1976 at an MSRP of $450. [1] A desktop version with built-in thermal printer was sold as the HP-97 at a price of $750. [2] Collectively, they are known as the HP-67/97.
Electric power, like mechanical power, is the rate of doing work, measured in watts, and represented by the letter P. The term wattage is used colloquially to mean "electric power in watts". The electric power in watts produced by an electric current I consisting of a charge of Q coulombs every t seconds passing through an electric potential ...
