There is no transformer used in PC power supply. There is rectifier used to rectify or convert AC input voltage into DC output voltage.Transformer based rectifier produces some spikes at the output DC voltage, hencethey uses SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) to avoid spikes to the output DC voltage and get a smooth DC voltage.
What else can I help you with?
Do transformers work on DC supply?
No, unless you have a pulsating DC
Why do transformers work only work on an AC supply?
Transformers only work on ac supply because it principle is mutual induction. DC supply has constant magnitude whereas AC has alternating magnitude. so we can step up or step down current/voltage in transformer in ac only.
How does auto transformer work with DC supply?
Transformers don't work with DC supplies - they only work on AC.

How does a power inverter work?
Power inverters work as an electrical converter which allows a direct current to change into alternating current. This is the commonly known as a DC-AC power conversion. In short, inverters work the opposite as rectifiers that converts AC or alternating current into DC or direct current.
Are fans in computers ac or DC?
the work is done in the power supply box (the metal box part in the computer, the one you plug the power cord into). It converts AC to DC via transformers, rectifiers, and voltage regulators and has extra circuitry in there to make sure that the voltage doesn't ripple (with the changes in the AC voltage) or spike (e.g., when you first turn it on)
Will 200mA power supply work for 2 amp power needed?
No No No. If your supply can give .2A, and you need 2 Amps, your supply's not going to cut it.
Can DC supply be used in transformer?
No. Transformers work on the principle of induction, induction needs a CHANGE in the flux to happen. A change in the flux can be produced by a changing current which is produced by an AC voltage supply. It is also not good to have DC added to an AC in transformers for some reasons I don't think you will be interested in. But never use DC with transformers because it will heat up and waste energy and no power would be transfered to the secondary side (some power would be produced for the first microseconds until the the voltage reaches it's peak). Dc flux cannot be used in a tranformer because the frequency is zero.
Does SNES power supply work for GameCube?
Yes, It is the exact same plug on the console side of the cord.
What type transformer is best transformer?
The best type of transformer is the one that best fits your needs. There are power transformers, audio transformers, pulse transformers, autotransformers, RF transformers and many others. Transformers can have iron cores, nickel-iron or other alloy cores, ferrite cores, and air cores. They can be of laminated construction (the so-called E-I core), they can be toroidal, solenoidal etc. They can be smaller than a pea, and bigger than your house. What are you trying to build? Talk to some transformer manufacturers or look on their websites for the best transformer for your particular application. If you are trying to build an amplifier or power supply or similar, there are also some good special-interest forums that can offer suggestions.
What power supply is needed for the Sun 9641A Case?
Any standard ATX power supply will work great with the Sun 9641A.
Why does your computer mouse and keyboard not work anymore after changing the power supply?
Possibly not enough output power. Are you sure that you got the right size power supply?
