Fundamental Knowledge of Power Adapters: A Comprehensive Guide

I. Understanding Power Adapters.

AC/DC power adapter, also known as a power supply or AC adapter. It is an electronic device that converts alternating hing AC power 90v-240v from a wall outlet into low DC power 5v-56v that can be used by electronic devices,such as laptop,air purifier,robot,la mp ... It typically consists of a transformer, rectifier, and voltage regulator, which work together to provide a stable and consistent source of DC power to the device. When we choose power adapter need know what is the dc output voltage and ampere of our device.

II.Classification of power adapters.

In the field of power adapter production . It  can be classified based on several factors. Here are some common classifications:

Based on Shape:
-Wall mount power adapter- Fixed plug in wall
-Desktop power adapter- The desktop power supply consists of two parts, the AC power cord and the power adapter.
-Interchangeable plug power adapter- Plugs are moveable, it usually come with US, EU, UK, KC, JP etc.

Based on Application:

- Laptop Power Adapters: Specifically designed to power and charge laptops.
- Mobile Chargers: Designed for charging mobile phones and other portable devices.
- LED Power Adapters: Used to power LED lighting systems.
-Universal Power Adapters: Designed for industry audio  and video equipment .Such as LCD screens, robots, UAVs, air cleaning...

Based on Safety Standards:

-IEC (/) industry power adapter- IEC is a safety standard for audio, video, and information technology equipment. It is a newer standard that replaces the older IEC and IEC standards.

-IEC / household power adapter- IEC is a safety standard specifically for household and similar electrical appliances. It covers a wide range of appliances commonly used in households, including kitchen appliances, cleaning appliances, and personal care appliances.

-IEC LED power adapter- IEC is a safety standard for electronic control gear for use with LED modules. It specifies safety requirements for LED power adapters and other electronic control gear used in LED lighting applications.

-IEC medical power supply- IEC -1 ensures that medical power supplies meet stringent safety standards to protect patients, healthcare providers, and surrounding environments.
