How does a DC power supply work?

common problems 4690

A DC power supply converts alternating current (AC) electricity to DC electricity either by a linear method or by a switching method. Switching power supplies are more efficient, lighter in weight and smaller in form factor. Linear power supplies can achieve lower noise, but this is no longer an advantage with modern switching power supplies.

    A multimeter is an instrument that can measure a wide range of parameters, such as alternating (AC) or direct current (DC) voltage, AC or DC current, resistance, temperature, capacitance, and so on. Modern digital multimeters use digital and logic technology to become smaller and smaller with more and more built-in functions. By introducing digital technology, digital multimeters can provide graphical displays, data logging and signal digitization as well as...

  • What is an AC power supply?

    712

    An AC power supply is responsible for providing AC power to the load. The power input can be either AC or DC. You need an AC power supply because the power from the wall outlet does not meet the specifications of the load. In order for the load to operate properly, you need to transform the AC power supply to tune the AC power from the supply to the voltage, current, and frequency required by the device. This can be done by boosting...

    Automated Test Equipment (ATE) system power supplies are programmable power supplies designed specifically for ATE systems. Form factor is critical. ATE power supplies with higher power densities take up less rack space, reducing the factory floor space required for test equipment. The ATE power supply is a programmable power supply designed specifically for ATE systems.
