There is provided a power supply device sensing an AC-off state. The power supply device includes a rectifier configured to rectify AC power into DC power, a transformer configured to supply output voltage by converting voltage of the DC power rectified by the rectifier, and a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control module configured to output voltage by switching a power switching device connected to the transformer, configured to drive the power supply device by connecting power of an HV pin to a VCC pin, and configured to determine an AC-off state by sensing voltage rectified by the rectifier.

Power supply device sensing AC-off state

A power converter according to examples reduces standby power consumption. The power converter includes a rectifier configured to rectify AC power into DC power, a transformer configured to output power by converting a voltage of DC power rectified by the rectifier, a PWM control module configured to control an output power by switching a power switching device connected to the transformer, a first external switch configured to provide a disable signal, a first capacitor that is connected in parallel to one side of the first external switch, a second external switch configured to provide an enable signal, and a second capacitor that is connected in parallel to one side of the second external switch.
