Switch Mode Power Supply
A Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) is an efficient and compact electronic power conversion device that regulates voltage
and current by switching transistors on and off rapidly. Used in various applications, including industrial equipment,
computers, LED lighting, and telecommunications, SMPS provides a stable and reliable power source with minimal energy loss.
One of the key advantages of SMPS is its high efficiency, often exceeding 80%, due to reduced heat generation and lower
power consumption. It operates across a wide input voltage range, making it suitable for both AC and DC power sources.
Additionally, its compact size and lightweight design make it a preferred choice over traditional linear power supplies.
SMPS units are available in different configurations, such as AC-DC converters, DC-DC converters, and uninterruptible power
supply (UPS) systems, catering to specific power needs. With features like overload protection, high-frequency operation,
and minimal electromagnetic interference, SMPS is a reliable and cost-effective solution for modern electronic and industrial
applications.
