AC-DC Adapters

AC-DC adapters accept AC input voltage directly from a wall outlet, and output DC voltage.

AC-DC Converters

AC-DC converters are electrical circuits that transform alternating current (AC) input into direct current (DC) output.

Board Mount Power Supplies

Board mount power supplies are devices that can be embedded or mounted on computer boards or general PCB boards.

Computer Power Supplies

Computer power supplies convert alternating current (AC) line to direct current (DC) line, needed by the computer.

DC Power Supplies

DC power supplies accept an input power and output the desired form of DC power. Common types of DC power supplies include linear power supplies, switching power supplies, DC-DC converters, and silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) type power supplies.

High Voltage Power Supplies

High voltage power supplies use linear technology to provide one or more DC outputs at voltage levels of hundreds or thousands of volts.

Medical Power Supplies

Medical power supplies are power supplies designed to produce conditioned outputs for medical devices, instruments, and equipment.

Power Supplies

Power supplies are electrical devices that deliver electric power to one or several loads. They generate the output power by converting an input signal into an output signal.

Switching Power Supplies

Switching power supplies are DC sources that use a switching element (normally a power transistor) to generate the desired voltage. Switching power supplies are also called switch-mode products or switching mode power supplies (SMPS).
