MMB50A-5-CN

AC DC Converters

The MMB50A-5-CN is a type of AC DC converter designed for electrical connection into American type NEMA 5-15 and 5-20 outlets. The converter is specifically designed to transfer AC input voltage of up to 200 volts AC to a standard 19V DC output voltage.

Application Field of MMB50A-5-CN

The MMB50A-5-CN can be used for a variety of applications where a mechanical AC connection is desired, such as powering an LED light, a laptop computer, or a wall clock. In addition, it can be utilized for home appliance, industrial, and automotive applications. It can also be used to directly power electronic equipment in lieu of batteries.

Working Principle of MMB50A-5-CN

To convert AC input voltage to a standard 19V DC output voltage, the MMB50A-5-CN utilizes a boost converter. This converter takes advantage of the fact that the input voltage is always greater than the required output voltage. The boost converter takes the incoming electric power and steps it up (boosts it) to a level where the output voltage is equal to the desired DC output voltage.

The boost converter is comprised of an input rectifier, an output capacitor, an inductor, and a switch. The input rectifier rectifies the incoming AC voltage to produce a pulsed DC voltage. The capacitor acts as a smoothening filter to make the pulsed DC voltage more useable. The inductor acts as a storage device to provide the converter with an energy bank for times when the current output demands exceed the input. Lastly, the switch regulates the output voltage, by alternating the current flow.

Conclusion

The MMB50A-5-CN is a professional AC DC converter specially designed for powering electronic equipment, LED lights, laptop computers, wall clocks, home appliances, industrial, and automotive applications. It takes advantage of a boost converter to step up the input voltage to a standard 19V DC. This AC DC converter is a great solution when in need of a connection to a variety of power sources.
