An application study about SMPS design and reduction of common mode noises

A switched-mode power supply (also called as switching-mode power supply, SMPS, or simply switcher) is an electronic power supply unit (PSU) that incorporates a switching regulator. This paper investigates SMPS design and a filter solution for common mode noises. At first, the design of an SMPS which has three outputs has been presented after that common mode noises have been determined and then these noises have been tried to be reduced by the filter. The experimental studies have shown that there is a considerable reduction in common mode noises thanks to designed filter.
