How does a DC power supply work?

common problems 4710

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.

  • How to use the current probe

    682

    Want to know how to use the current probe? Please first understand the following basic usage of the current probe and precautions for use. Since electricity is invisible, it is not possible to immediately determine whether a malfunction has occurred. In some cases, current measurements are required on a daily basis to prevent malfunctions, as well as to identify the cause of malfunctions when they do occur. Digital multimeters, clamp meters, and current probes can be used...

  • How to read the measurement results of a digital multimeter?

    533

    Most handheld or benchtop digital multimeters display measurements digitally. The number of digits displayed on the screen usually represents the measurement resolution of the digital multimeter. Resolution is the smallest detail that a digital multimeter can quantitatively determine when making a measurement. Therefore, the more digits a digital multimeter displays, the higher its resolution. Handheld digital multimeters are typically capable of displaying three-and-a-half and four...

  • Clamp Meter Usage

    593

    If you want to measure current, voltage, etc., you need specialized measuring equipment. Analog and digital multimeters are usually used to measure current, but the circuit must be cut off and the multimeter and the circuit connected in series in order to make the measurement. However, it is not uncommon that it is not possible to disconnect the circuit in some cases. In addition, there is a danger of electric shock when the circuit is disconnected. In this case the clamp meter...
