Power Supply Unit – Linear Power Supply

Brief description:

Linear power supply is a traditional power supply solution that achieves stable DC output through linear regulation.

The core working principle of a linear power supply can be divided into two steps: first, using a power frequency transformer to reduce 220V AC power to the required voltage value, and then converting it into rough DC power through a rectification and filtering circuit; Subsequently, the linear regulator (a power transistor operating in the linear amplification region) acts as a dynamically variable resistor, automatically adjusting its voltage drop by detecting the output voltage in real-time and comparing it with the reference voltage, thereby absorbing excess energy and ultimately outputting highly stable and pure DC current.

The main advantages of this scheme are excellent output characteristics: extremely low ripple and noise (usually below 1mV), no high-frequency interference generated by switching power supplies, almost zero electromagnetic radiation, and simple circuit structure, high reliability, and fast dynamic response. However, its inherent drawbacks are low conversion efficiency and large size. Based on its “clean” but “inefficient” characteristics, linear power supplies are mainly used in fields such as medical equipment, industrial control, audio and testing, and small household appliances.

☷ Product Advantages

The core function of AC/AC communication adapter 1. Voltage conversion: This is the most direct function. It reduces the high voltage of the mains power (such as 220V AC in China and 110V AC in the United States) to the safe low voltage required by the equipment (such as 16.5V, 9V, 18V, etc. as you mentioned). 2. Electrical isolation: This is the most critical and important safety function of AC/AC adapters. It uses an internal transformer and the principle of electromagnetic induction to completely isolate the input side (primary coil) and output side (secondary coil) electrically. There is no potential difference between the output voltage and the ground. Even if you accidentally touch one end of the output line, it will not form a circuit with the ground, thus avoiding the risk of electric shock and greatly improving the safety of device use. Isolation can effectively block surges, peak voltages, and noise interference in the municipal power grid, providing a “clean” power source for precision electronic equipment in the backend and extending equipment lifespan. 3. Design tradition and cost: For some mature devices, their internal circuit boards already integrate rectification, filtering, and DC-DC voltage stabilization modules. Continuing to use simple and reliable AC/AC adapters can reduce the cost of the adapter itself. Heat dissipation considerations: Placing the rectification and voltage stabilization circuits that generate heat on the motherboard inside the device can utilize the larger space and casing of the device itself to dissipate heat, rather than concentrating all the heat in a small adapter. Anti interference capability: Simple power frequency transformers are not sensitive to external electromagnetic interference and may be more reliable in certain noise sensitive applications. Safety: For a type of electrical appliance (with a metal casing that needs to be grounded), separating the “coarse adjustment” (voltage isolation) and “fine adjustment” (rectification and stabilization) of the power supply is a classic and safe design solution. The fundamental difference from AC/DC adapters To better understand the function of AC/AC adapters, comparing them with AC/DC is a very effective method:

Characteristics AC/AC Adapter AC/DC Adapter
Output current type Alternating current Direct current
Core component Power frequency transformer Transformer+rectifier bridge+filtering capacitor+(voltage regulator circuit)
Essence Isolation step-down transformer Switching power supply or linear power supply
Output voltage characteristics Usually it is non regulated, and the voltage may fluctuate slightly depending on the load Usually it is regulated, and the output voltage remains stable at the nominal value
Weight and volume Heavy and large (due to iron core and copper wire transformer) Light and small (especially switch mode power supply)
Efficiency Relatively low Relatively high
Application Logic I am only responsible for providing safe low-voltage AC power, and you can do the rectification and voltage stabilization yourself I will directly provide you with the stable DC power required for the device, and you can use it immediately

 Some models have passed UL certification and comply with UL1310 safety specifications (UL file number E310452)
