A switch-mode power supply (SMPS) switches been fully-on and fully-off states quickly to maintain voltage regulation. They offer lower power dissipation and run cooler than linear regulators that continually dissipate power through a transistor.

Prevent spark/surge when connecting power cable (charging input bulk capacitor)
In cheap off-line AC-DC SMPS you will probably notice a huge spark when you connecting the PSU to mains. That usually won't cause problem because your mains is far more capable to handle that surge.

Using external trim resistor to control boost converter voltage without introducing noise to...
Requirement:
I want to use external trim to control the output voltage. This will modify/replace the internal R1/RV1/R3 feedback network.
There should be only one trim terminal so it should be refer …

Increase switching frequency of boost converter with MAX1771
The MAX1771(always in DCM, has no oscillator) was chosen as controller for minimum component count: no error amplifier compensation, no slope compensation, no current feedback RC filter, no external …

Need help understanding voltage multiplier in boost SMPS
I made a 4x multiplier on the switch node of a boost circuit.
I don't quite understand how DC pulses behave in a voltage multiplier.
C1, C2, C4, and C10 don't seem to contribute to series discharge. …

Why are MOSFETs connected in reverse for synchronous rectification?
I'm trying to understand how synchronous rectification works.
Here is an example in boost topology:
The function of D1 is to allow current from left to right and block right to left.
M3 is a PMOSFET …
