Summary of the dismantling of the charging head network

Mechanical Revolution 280W silicon carbide power adapter is designed in a classic style, the body and power cord are separated from the design to facilitate users to change the corresponding specifications of cables to different regions, and the elbow design of the DC cable is convenient for use in narrow corners, and it is equipped with a double shielded magnetic ring to ensure better output. The power supply supports a wide voltage input of 100-240V, and has passed CCC certification and Level VI energy efficiency certification.

Through dismantling, the charging head network learned that as a high-power notebook power supply, the internal PCBA module uses a large thermal pad and a heat sink for heat dissipation, and the core heating device is also equipped with a special heat sink to ensure that the power supply can run with high power for a long time. The dismantling found that the core device information was polished, and the specific use scheme could not be determined, but it can be judged that the voltage adopts the current mainstream PFC+LLC power supply architecture, and it also does use a silicon carbide switch WM2A060065N in the south of the national base, which is reliable in publicity.
