smps

Hello everybody. I am trying to increase my power Supply's default 12V 3.3A output to something like 20V 3A. I Decided to use a potential resistor via the shunt regulator at the opto-coupler which i was sure it had. But the problem is that when i opened the power supply, most of the output...

I tried to understand PFC in an SMPS voltage converter. I read from many websites but still confused very much about the following things. Situation: it’s an SMPS flyback (for example) converter, to output (for example) 24v dc to an inductive load of 100W (average). Input 230v AC mains 50Hz...

Hi All, I have made an electromagnet of using 1 mm diameter wire appx 60 turns. here is the problem... i have 600W smps(computer power supply) and i want to use that to power my electromagnet. On smps it shows 3.3V with 25A and 5V with 18A. If i connect my electromagnet to one of these terminals...

Hi, I have a crt monitor that dosent work now, I figured out that a mosfet was running very hot and was shorting the smps(making it stop and restart), I removed it and saw that theres no short circuit now and the led/buttons works but theres no picture, it's the mosfet that generates the B+...

I've been looking at UCC28C43 models provided by TI. Why do we need two different Spice models such as "Transient steady-state" & "transient start-up" for MOSFET driver IC? How do we use them? When do we need these analyses? Do all microcontrollers in power electronics have such separate models...

Hello All, I have an SMPS that i want to change its transformer (image below) in the original transformer, pin 7 is connected to ground and pin 9 to a rectifier diode. with another transformer (image below) Now, the primary of both transformers are similar but the secondary of original...

I am wondering how will these two differ, One is Ac to DC converter module, second one is SMPS. Link1(AC to DC module) Link2(SMPS) when link 1 is available in a small size than Link2(SMPS). Under what circumstance we have to use Link1 and link2. I understand that SMPS is 5watt, Link1/Module...

Hello Everyone, I am currently working on a 2.5kW PSFB converter using UCC28950 ic from TI in TINA simulation (unfortunately couldn't get a similar model for LTspice). The simulation is working however I am not getting the desired results (i.e. Vout = 84V and Iout = 30A). I have a uploaded a...

Hello all, I have a SMPS power supply based on the TNY276 PMIC, I did a "No-load input power consumption" test using DMM connected to AC line input to measure current values while varing the input voltage from 85VAC to 265VAC... I got the following results: Input Voltage (VAC) Input...

Hello, i have an issue with a 12v30A PSU: low output of 4v instead of 12v, SMPS transformer noise like low frequency issue. No short element in the secondary, RT/CT of tl 494 within specs, but i suspect the capacitor at VCC of TL494 : it is only 10mF and has only 7.5V. The DC output voltage...

i have developed a small board that has a controller and a 16x2 display. I am powering up the board using external smps power supply. I want to add serge protection, so that my system will be protected from any time of serge or spikes. One option is i can use fuse but i want to know what else...

Hello i am an engineering student working on a project of Switch mode power supply with outputs of 12V 1Amp .For this reason i have used power integration software to design smps supply circuit *(Schematic attached )with 12V 1 Amp required outputs. I have implemented this Circuit on PCB as...

I am using Arduino and Controlling FAN which works on 48v. so i am using 2 power supply smps in my design. One for Arduino that 5V smps and another for FAN that is 48V smps. I want to use single power supply in my design that is of 48Vdc. I was looking for a buck converter that will take 48V as...

Hello all, I have the following 12V center-tap transformer with below number of turns, I used (Np/Ns = Vp/Vs) to calculate output but i didn't get 12V although transformer specification says it's 12V. Can someone point out where I have mistaken? Also How can I calculate primary current given...

Hello, I need to design a linear regulated supply to power an dac output stage based on op amp. It must be a negative + ground + positive one. The problem I encounter is that I don't know wich topology to select between the first and second arrangement. I suppose that the first one induce a...

Hello all, I am designing a 12V, 18W Flyback SMPS and i can't figure exactly the characteristics of high-freq transformer (Both Core, Bobbin) to send for transformer manufacturer!! Can someone already went through these procedures guide me little bit!? Regards,

What's the purpose of each part of circuit circled in the picture bellow!?

Hi guys, I am working on 12V 30A smps that has only 1V output. I haven't got board's schematic but I found one same like mine( Schematic Link). I measured high voltage capacitors (C2 and C3 on the schematic.) and bridge rectifier. They are working. Also checked power switching transistor on...

i have a power supply of 24 volts and the circuit consist 103aiw dual op amp till 14 volts the power supply output stays stable but further more it's starts fluctuating but when load connected the voltage become stable please help me to find out the reason why without load the op amp don't work...

Please I have some couple of 3.6v 3Ah cylindrical li-ion battery, but since I bought them, charging it became a huge problem. I first connected a single one to a 2A infinix phone charger (made in china. According to the ratings, it capable of adjusting output current and voltage to load)thinking...
