Abstract
The invention relates to a switched mode power supply, whereby the number of components is reduced to a considerable extent in comparison with conventional switched mode power supplies. The switching transistor of the switched mode power supply is controlled by a processor on the secondary side of said switched mode power supply. Control thereof is determined by the software of the processor and can be slightly modified and adapted. The required processor functions can be taken over by a processor that is already contained in the device which is powered by the switched mode power supply.
