Open switching power supplies are available in stock and free of charge. The working process of an open switching power supply is quite easy to understand. In a linear power supply, the power transistor operates in linear mode. Unlike a linear power supply, a PWM switching power supply operates the power transistor in on and off states. In these two states, the volt ampere product added to the power transistor/power device is the loss generated on the power semiconductor device.
Features:
1. Small size and light weight: Due to the absence of power frequency transformers, the volume and weight are only 20-30% of linear power supplies.
2. Low power consumption and high efficiency: Power transistors work in a switching state, so the power consumption on the transistor is low and the conversion efficiency is high, generally 60-70%, while linear power supplies only have 30-40%.
