Hello Members,
I just harnessed an SMPS (Switching Mode Power Supply) form a printer of mine which was lying useless for ages. The PS (PowerSupply) look in great shape but i just can't get it working properly for some reason. On the casing of the SMPS (see attachment), it says Input: 100-240V 50/60Hz 0.6A and Output: 24vDC 1.2A, the Output of the the board has 3 pins GND, 3V & VO.
Now the fun part, when i supply Mains (AC) to the SMPS & check the output, all i get is 7vDC across GND & VO, I tried applying load across GND & VO, still the same thing, the Output voltage not more then 7vDC. So whats up with the labeling of 24vDC as the output on the SMPS casing?
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Best Regards.
