Anglia introduces five complete power supply reference designs

The range of kits includes designs for both isolated and non-isolated topologies, at power levels up to 30W. They are suitable for customers designing and manufacturing their own power supplies for almost any type of mains-operated equipment. The need for such power supply reference designs is being driven by energy efficiency regulations such as CEC and Energy Star, and by the need to replace expensive 50Hz linear transformer solutions with a more cost-effective option.



Each ADAK kit includes a fully assembled and tested power supply evaluation board and complete documentation, including a product datasheet – giving performance data and typical operating characteristics – and an Engineering Prototype Report (EPR). The EPR details the power supply reference design specification, schematic, bill of materials, transformer documentation, and provides the PCB layout. Further documentation, including Gerber files for the layout, can also be downloaded from the Anglia website.



Commented Martin Brown, Anglia’s Divisional Marketing Manager for Power Products, “Anglia and Power Integrations are committed to providing the most cost effective solutions for switching power supplies. The ADAK boards have been designed to use standard and easily available “off the shelf” components, which customers can either use to produce a fully working power supply or customise to meet their specific applications.”



“The range is expanding all the time,” he added. “Although the current models are aimed at lower power applications, PI produce products ranging from a few mW to 290W and in the future we expect to produce reference designs for a wider range of these devices.”
