    Switch Mode Power Supply: a varistor between EARTH and the secondary's GROUND

    Hi, > Maybe it's there to ensure an ELCB triggers if L and N are reversed. No, because all Power Supplies in the world have a Diode Bridge across the L and N. After the Common Mode Filter you find a diode bridge. I suspect that the varistor is required some the safety regulations. Enrico

    Switch Mode Power Supply: a varistor between EARTH and the secondary's GROUND

    Hi, I'm developing a 20-watt switch mode power supply. The PWM controller is STM's Viper 27. So far everything is going fine, the prototype works pretty well under light and full load. At the moment the PSU is in our oven at 70 Degrees :-) I noticed on a competitor's power supply the...
