Abstract :
In this work a power supply for an electrochemical process named electrophoresis is described. Electrophoresis is defined as movement of particles through solvent under external electric field influence. There are several kinds of electrophoresis test and some of them require a DC power supply with some special characteristics. In this ease, the electric field is achieved by a switched mode power supply with characteristics like: wide range in output voltage (0-300 V), good voltage regulation (<5%) under load variations (0-300 mA) and features like long time operation (programmable from 1 to 999 minutes) and user friendly. Results of some electrophoresis tests are included
