Design a 12V/27W SMPS Circuit with UC3843 SMPS Controller IC Switching Mode Power Supply, or simply SMPS, is a type of Power Supply Unit (PSU) that uses a switching device (such as a transistor or MOSFET) to convert the source, which can be AC or DC, to a constant DC voltage. Switched-mode power supply circuits (SMPS) are most often required in many electronic designs to convert the AC mains voltage to a suitable level of DC voltage… |
