EEC475

A kit of passive and active power supply components, housed in a convenient storage tray with identification information.

Introduces the student to a variety of different types of Power Supply

The EEC475 is used in conjunction with the EEC470 deck to provide a course of study that brings together practical experience and the related theoretical concepts, ranging from basic principles to power supply design.

The combination of EEC470 and EEC475 requires a 92-445 Power Supply.
