Home / Low Loss High-Frequency Switching Power Supply
A switched-mode power supply (SMPS), also called switching-mode power supply, switch-mode power supply, switched power supply, or simply switcher, is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently. A (non-SMPS) uses a linear regulator to provide the desired output voltage by dissipating power in (e. , in a resistor or in the collector–emitter region of a pass transistor in its activ.
