A Look Inside The TOP-1100P10

We decided to disassemble this power supply to see what it looks like inside, how it is designed, and what components are used. Please read our Anatomy of Switching Power Supplies tutorial to understand how a power supply works and to compare this power supply to others.

This page will be an overview, while in the following pages we will discuss the quality and ratings of the components used in detail.

What immediately got our eye was the fact that this power supply has two transformers. We will see how they are connected in just a bit. The ESA circuitry can be seen on the left hand side in Figure 5.
