1. What is the Amp of a 12V power supply?
A 12V SMPS Power Supply can have multiple Amp current variation. It can be available in 500 milliamps, 1 Amp, 2 Amp, 5 Amp, 10 Amp, 15 Amp, 25 Amp, 33 Amp, 60 Amp and many more options. The 12V 15A power supply price on Robocraze is Approx. INR 649.
2. Is power supply and SMPS same?
The main difference between linear power supplies and SMPS is that linear power supplies first convert high voltage AC to low voltage AC followed by a rectification process. In contrast, the SMPS first converts the AC signal to his DC signal and then steps down the voltage signal. SMPS differ from linear power supplies in the way they convert the primary AC voltage to the output DC voltage. A SMPS uses a power transistor to generate a high frequency voltage, which is passed through a small transformer and filtered to remove AC noise.
3. What are the types of SMPS?
SMPS can be divided into two types based on circuit topology: non-isolated converters and isolated converters. Non-Isolated Converter: Input source and output load share a common current path during operation and energy is transferred via energy storage elements (inductors and capacitors). A non-isolated converter is a type of SMPS topology in which the circuit and output are not isolated. They have a common connection.
4. Does SMPS convert AC to DC?
Yes, The SMPS converts AC current to DC Current. It uses rectifiers and filters to convert AC into DC. A SMPS uses a power transistor to generate a high frequency voltage, which is passed through a small transformer and filtered to remove AC noise. It is used in servers, power plants, security systems, personal computers, etc. It is also used to charge car batteries. The power supply 12v 15 amp can be used in Home appliances and domestic usage.
5. Does this SMPS have over-voltage protection?
Yes, it has built-in over-voltage protection.
