Welcome to the world of power supplies - let's journey from the basics of electrical engineering to the independent creation and repair of devices!
This book is your guide from the first steps in understanding the principles of power supply operation to confidently designing your own circuits. The fundamentals of energy conversion, the operation of transformers, rectifiers, filters, and stabilizers are explained in simple language. Gradually, the reader progresses to studying switching and inverter circuits, drivers, PFC correctors, and modern solutions. The material is presented in a way that allows knowledge to build sequentially - from simple experiments to conscious practice. You will learn not only to understand circuits but also to independently assemble, upgrade, and repair power supplies for various purposes. Each topic is accompanied by detailed circuit diagrams, illustrations, calculations, and practical recommendations.
The book will be useful for radio amateurs, students of technical specialties, service center technicians, and anyone who wants to understand how power supplies are created and operate.
