Hello Friends,

Please tell me what is SMPS.

[StuartSpindlow1]

SMPS is a power supply that uses a switching regulator to control and stabilize the output voltage by switching the load current on and off.

A switched-mode power supply (switching-mode power supply, switch-mode power supply, switched power supply, SMPS, or switcher) is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently. It provides power to your desktop computer.

A switched-mode power supply (SMPS) is an electronic circuit that converts power using switching devices that are turned on and off at high frequencies, and storage components such as inductors or capacitors to supply power when the switching device is in its non-conduction state.

Short for Switched-Mode Power Supply, SMPS is a power supply that uses a switching regulator to control and stabilize the output voltage by switching the load current on and off. These power supplies offer a greater power conversion and reduce the overall power loss.

Advantages of switched-mode power supplies:

• Higher efficiency of 68% to 90%
• Regulated and reliable outputs regardless of variations in input supply voltage
• Small size and lighter
• Flexible technology
• High power density

Disadvantages:

• Generates EMI
• Complex circuit design
• Expensive compared to linear supplies
