AC/DC power supplies are used in several electronic devices, encompassing computers, smartphones, radios, and TVs. AC/DC power supplies come in many dimensions and configurations, tailored to suit the ...

[Ladyada] is working on a tutorial series covering power supplies. If you’ve ever built an electronic project you’ve used some type of power supply but we think that most people have no idea how you ...

A new class of high-power, three-phase AC-DC units with flexible outputs and industrial temp resilience aims to streamline power design in test, fab and manufacturing systems.

TDK has announced the release of the TDK‑Lambda TPS4500 series of industrial AC‑DC power supplies, offering a rated output of ...

Making a dc voltage from an ac source means you will have to rectify the ac voltage to get a dc bus. One difference compared to a dc-dc converter is that you can use a linear power supply with an ac ...

Maybe I'm describing a unicorn device here but I have a bunch of devices that run off DC-in of various voltages, and take a barrel jack connector for power. They all have their own wall warts but I've ...

Rectifiers and ac-dc power supplies employ large bulk capacitors. During power-up, these capacitors require a large amount of current to charge up, resulting in a large inrush current. This inrush ...
