Presented by: Aakash Biswas
Switched Mode Power Supply - SMPS
It is an electronic device that converts power using switching devices that are turned on and off at high frequencies.
The input voltage form AC mains is directly rectified and filtered using a capacitor
The unregulated DC voltage across the capacitor is then given to a high frequency
DC to DC convertor which converts it into a regulated DC voltage.
SMPS Cables and Connectors Description
