Introduction

The supply is a Switching Mode Power Supply(SMPS). The frequency of operation varies with the circuit load.This ‘Quasi-Resonant Flyback’ behavior has someimportant benefits compared to a ‘hard switching’ fixedfrequency Flyback converter. The efficiency can be improved up to90%, which results in lower power consumption. Moreoverthe supply runs cooler and safety is enhanced.

The power supply starts operating when a DC voltage goes fromthe rectifier bridge via T5520, R3532 to pin 8. The operating voltagefor the driver circuit is also taken from the ‘hot’ sideof this transformer.

The switching regulator IC 7520 starts switching the FET ‘on’ and ‘off’,to control the current flow through the primary winding of transformer5520. The energy stored in the primary winding during the ‘on’ timeis delivered to the secondary windings during the ‘off’ time.
