  2. Power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply

    An integrated power supply is one that shares a common printed circuit board with its load. 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 ...

    The computer case holds the motherboard, fixed or removable disk drives for data storage, the power supply, and may contain other peripheral devices such as modems or network interfaces. Some models of desktop computers integrated the monitor and keyboard into the same case as the processor and power supply.

  7. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

    A regulated power supply is an embedded circuit; it converts unregulated AC (alternating current) into a constant DC. With the help of a rectifier it converts AC supply into DC. Its function is to supply a stable voltage (or less often current), to a circuit or device that must be operated within certain power supply limits.

    The electric power industry; A source of electrical energy. Electric power system, a network of electrical components used to supply, transmit and use electric power Electricity generation, the process of generating electric power from other sources of primary energy; Power station, an industrial facility for the generation of electric power

  9. Uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply

    This is a critical point – each power supply must be able to power the entire server by itself. Redundancy is further enhanced by plugging each power supply into a different circuit (i.e. to a different circuit breaker). Redundant protection can be extended further yet by connecting each power supply to its own UPS.
