    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

    Stand-alone switched-mode power supply An adjustable switched-mode power supply for laboratory use. A switched-mode power supply (SMPS), also called switching-mode power supply, switch-mode power supply, switched power supply, or simply switcher, is an electronic power supply that incorporates a switching regulator to convert electrical power efficiently.

  3. Regulated power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulated_power_supply

    D.C. variable bench power supply unit, with a digital display showing current (left) and voltage (right), and three banana connectors (+, ground, -).Other power supplies may use the opposite order for indicators and connectors, and two different colours for the indicators.

  4. Power supply unit (computer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_supply_unit_(computer)

    Original IBM power supplies for the PC (model 5150), XT and AT included a line-voltage power switch that extended through the side of the computer case. In a common variant found in tower cases, the line-voltage switch was connected to the power supply with a short cable, allowing it to be mounted apart from the power supply.
