Linear vs Switching Power Supplies:
A Hybrid Model That Delivers the Best of Both Worlds

Traditional power supplies typically fit within one of two categories, linear power supplies or switching power supplies, resulting in a tradeoff of efficiency and precision. 

 

The SE Power Platform’s hybrid architecture delivers both, combining the best features into a single platform.

​

In this knowledge paper, you’ll learn:

  • The strengths and drawbacks of linear vs. switching designs.

  • Why labs and industries have long faced a compromise.

  • How the SE Power Platform merges the best of both in a single hybrid system.
