Switching Mode Power Supply (SMPS) is a high-frequency power conversion device. Its function is to convert a potential voltage through different forms of architecture to the voltage or current required by the client, which has been widely used in a variety of electronic equipment.
SMPS includes four kinds.They are AC to DC,DC to DC,DC to AC and AC to AC. Smarts is professional led power supply manufacturer in AC to DC led power supply.For example, Power supply for led lighting strips and power supply for led pool light are the usage of AC to DC led power supply. Switched-mode power supplies are used to power a wide variety of equipment such as computers, sensitive electronics, battery-operated devices and other equipment requiring high efficiency.It owns several advantages.
The main advantage of SMPS is that it is more efficient than a linear regulator, because the switching transistor can dissolve very little power when it works as a switch. Secondly, SMPS are smaller in size and lighter in weight because heavy line frequency transformers are removed and similar heat is generated. The standby power loss is usually much smaller than that of a transformer. What’s more,it has flexible technology and high power density which enables it could be used in sensitive electronics and other high efficiency equipment.
Hope this will help you better understand the concept before implementing any electrical project.
