  2. 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.

  3. Buck converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_converter

    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 to its output . It is a class of switched-mode power supply.

  4. Power semiconductor device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_semiconductor_device

    A power semiconductor device is a semiconductor device used as a switch or rectifier in power electronics (for example in a switch-mode power supply).Such a device is also called a power device or, when used in an integrated circuit, a power IC.

  5. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

    Modern regulated supplies mostly use a transformer, silicon diode bridge rectifier, reservoir capacitor and voltage regulator IC. There are variations on this theme, such as supplies with multiple voltage lines, variable regulators, power control lines, discrete circuits and so on. Switched mode regulator supplies also include an inductor.

  6. Vienna rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_rectifier

    The Vienna Rectifier provides the following features: Three-phase three-level three-switch PWM rectifier with controlled output voltage [3] Three-wire input, no connection to neutral; Ohmic mains behaviour [4] Boost system (continuous input current) Unidirectional power flow [5] High power density

  7. Power supply unit (computer) - Wikipedia

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

    When a computer is in ACPI S3 sleep mode, only +5 V SB rail is used. There are two basic differences between AT and ATX power supplies: the connectors that provide power to the motherboard, and the soft switch. In ATX-style systems, the front-panel power switch provides only a control signal to the power supply and does not switch the mains AC ...

  8. Single-ended primary-inductor converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_primary...

    Inductor L1 and switch S1 create a standard boost converter, which generates a voltage (V S1) that is higher than V IN, whose magnitude is determined by the duty cycle of the switch S1. Since the average voltage across C1 is V IN , the output voltage ( V O ) is V S1 - V IN .

  9. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_Utilization_factor

    The primary application of rectifiers is to derive DC power from an AC supply (AC to DC converter). Rectifiers are used inside the power supplies of virtually all electronic equipment. AC/DC power supplies may be broadly divided into linear power supplies and switched-mode power supplies. In such power supplies, the rectifier will be in series ...
