Simple yet safe 5V switching power supply
(Reverse Engineered Schematics)
Schematic of a German FRIWO charger (probably a mobile phone charger from the era before USB).
Very simple circuit and a safe looking design. However, the voltage is very inaccurate, with no load it is around 8V and with a load about 6-7V.

Board from the tracks and SMD component side.
Note: the board has been repaired or modified in the past.
