AC/DC converters are electrical components that convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). They are used in a variety of applications such as powering household appliances, vehicles, computers, and more. The DG160M-8 AC/DC converter is a popular choice for these applications. This product is created by Meanwell and is a universal AC input switch mode power supply. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the DG160M-8.

Application Field

The DG160M-8 AC/DC Converter from Meanwell is suitable for a variety of applications. It provides universal AC input of 90 to 264VAC and output wattage of 160W. It also has a wide output adjustment range of 10% to 110% of the rated wattage. This makes it perfect for applications that need stable voltage and current, such as in medical, computers, industrial, and office automation. It also has a temperature range of -30°C to +60°C, so it can be used in extreme temperatures.

The DG160M-8 is also designed to save energy, reduce heat, and EMI noise. It has a high efficiency of 88%, low ripple & noise, and over temperature protection (OTP) with auto-recovery. It also has short circuit, over current, and over voltage protection to keep your devices safe. These features in combination provide a long useful life for your devices.

Working Principle

The DG160M-8 AC/DC Converter works by converting the AC input voltage to a lower DC output voltage. This is done using an internal switching power supply with a rectifier and transformer. The rectifier takes the AC voltage and rectifies it to DC. Then the transformer steps down the DC voltage when needed. Once this conversion is done, the DC voltage is then regulated using an adjustable voltage regulator.

The adjustable voltage regulator is used to ensure the output voltage stays within the required limits. The output voltage is monitored and regulated by a feedback loop. This loop compares the output voltage to a reference voltage and then adjusts the voltage as necessary to maintain the correct voltage level.

The adjustable voltage regulator also provides protection for the output voltage if it exceeds the maximum voltage threshold. This is important to protect any damage to the connected devices. The adjustable voltage regulator is also used to ensure the output stays within the minimum required voltage.

Conclusion

The DG160M-8 from Meanwell is an AC/DC converter suitable for a variety of applications. It provides universal AC input of 90 to 264VAC and output wattage of 160W. It also has a wide output adjustment range of 10% to 110% of the rated wattage. The DG160M-8 works by converting AC input voltage to lower DC output voltage.
