Hi everyone,
I have a question about Switch Mode Power Supply(SMPS).i want to know that how SMPS works.I have read from one of the site which state that
"Switched mode power supplies or SMPS as DC to DC converters operate at 20 Khz or higher and utilize the energy stored during one portion of its operating cycle to supply power during the remaining segment of its operating cycle. It does however, suffer significantly in the ripple regulation it is able to maintain."
i can't understand what does an operating cycle means.
Is SMPS is off for a certain period of time and during this off time capacitor or any other element give votlage to load?
Or i am wrong.
please clear this.
And what is the concept of frequency in this means 20khz.
