A switched-mode power supply (switching-mode power supply, SMPS, or switcher) is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently. Like other power supplies, an SMPS transfers power from a source, like mains power, to a load, such as a personal computer, while converting voltage and current characteristics.
An SMPS is usually employed to efficiently provide a regulated output voltage, typically at a level different from the input voltage. thus it is used in all electronic devices that are directly connected to a DC power source

What is used as switching element in SMPS at 20-100 kHz?
MOSFET
Deferents between AT smps and ATX smps?
Basic difference between these are :- AT means "Advance Technology" while ATX is used for "Advance Technology Extended" SMPS. With respect to AT SMPS, ATX has an extra Plug of +12v Supply for Motherboard. It has four wires connected in square size plug. Two of them are Yellow and other two are black.
What is full from of smps?
smps means switch mode power supply
How do you test many SMPS working in automated power supply tester?
smps
Why you cant use smps in laptop?
SMPS [Switch Mode Power Supply ] also known as PSU [Power Supply Unit] is used in desktops to convert AC TO DC and to divide voltage to appropriate units to different components.... Since Laptops has a adapter [which does the job] which comes with the charger a seperate smps is not needed........ or Its included in the package..to be more clear yes laptops need smps
How do you check power supply without motherboard?
Connect Pin No. 14 & 15 on SMPS, if the fan moves then SMPS is working fine else SMPS is faulty.
How types are SMPS?
SMPS are mainly 4: flyback pushpull halfbridge full bridge
How do you check SMPS without CPU?
by shorting the red and green pin of smps we can check it working or not
Can a AT SMPS be replaced by ATX SMPS?
Ya easily. just take the ATX smps and pull out it's two extra pin from it's power plug and set it to the PC.
What is the purpose of SMPS?
An SMPS is a switched-mode power supply. It is used to convert an unregulated power input into a regulated power output, often altering the voltage. In a modern computer, several components may be powered from the same power supply but will often require different regulated voltages. The SMPS fulfils this role.
My PC tower will turn on but won't boot-up. Both fans inside work. Is the problem a bad motherboard or power supply?
motherboard problem, other wise change smps then turn on computer if it is boot-up smps problem. that's problem occur in smps or motherbordAnswermotherboard problem, other wise change smps then turn on computer if it is boot-up smps problem. that's problem occur in smps or motherbord
What does SMPS stand for?
SMPS stands for switched mode power supply
