BEAR Power Supplies awarded patent for encapsulated, PCB-mountable AC/DC converter with detachable AC line cord

The patented design provides improved convenience, safety and long-term reliability for designers of AC-powered electronic equipment. In addition to the detachable line cord, the compact design incorporates a “remote enable” function that allows the power supply to be turned on or off from a switch on the host system front panel, without the need to route the primary AC power to the front panel.

"This patent further demonstrates our expertise and our commitment to innovation in power supply design for demanding commercial, industrial and medical applications,” Allen said. “It is just one example of the many innovations we make every day, in both our standard and our custom power supplies, to make life easier for our customers."
