Switching Power Supplies
A Switching regulated power supply regulates the output voltage by the use of a complex high frequency switching technique. They have moderately good load and line regulation, but significantly higher ripple and output noise than linear regulated power supplies. They also have slow transient response, but high efficiency.
Typical applications
- general purpose use
- high power
- small size & light weight
- long hold-up time
- high efficiency
- Power Factor Correction
- wide input range
- digital circuits
