Engineers are familiar with the term Switched Mode Power Supply
or SMPS. Once it is understood that what SMPS actually is, its
countless applications can be easily imagined. Have a technical

The switching regulators (like transistors) in SMPS continuously peers!

form of heat which reduces the overall efficiency of the system.

SMPS can be made to deliver high efficiency up to 95%. SMPS can
be used in place of any linear regulator when high efficiency and a
small size, light weight power supply is required.

2. Buck-BoostConverter–
MORE EE CLASSROOMS
There will be two types of Buck-Boost Converters designed in this series –
I. Open Loop Inverting Buck – Boost Converter- In an Inverting
Buck-Boost converter, the output voltage can be greater and less
that the input voltage. The polarity of the output is opposite to the
input voltage that’s why it is called Inverting Buck-Boost converter. RECENT

In this Buck-Boost Converter, the output voltage can be varied

applications
The Flyback converter is just like a Buck-Boost Converter, the only
