Power Supply derives 5 and 3.3V from USB port
Design Ideas / The circuit in Figure 1 derives its power from a USB port and produces 5 and 3.3V supply rails for portable devices, such as digital cameras, MP3 players, and PDAs. The circuit allows the port to maintain communications while, for example, charging a lithium-io ...
Power Supply 5V 1.3/3A by LM2575
POWER1 is a switched power supply specially designed for use with modern single board computers. The mechanical dimensions match exactly those of the SBC ZWERG11A. Due to the small mechanical dimensions and the modern design, POWER1 can be used in all applications requiring a regulated voltage o ...
1-kV switching power supply
Designing a high-voltage switching power supply that can produce a sustained arc can be challenging. This compact and efficient design delivers 1 kV at 20W and can withstand a continuous arcing, or short-circuit, condition (Figure 1). It uses standard, commercially available components. R1 sets ...
555 timer as a switch-mode power supply
Most switch-mode power supplies rely on a PWM (pulse-width-modulated) output that is controlled via voltage feedback. A 555-timer IC can inexpensively perform PWM. The circuit in Figure 1 shows how to turn a 555 PWM circuit into an switch-mode power supply with only one simple equation. The desi ...
