 * Various types of electric power conversion equipment:
 * Boost converter
 * Buck–boost converter
 * Buck converter
 * Chopper
 * Switched-mode power supply
 * Power inverter
 * Motor controls, such as Variable-frequency drives

This frequency is also used in different types of DC-DC converters like Battery Discharge Regulator, Universal Bus Regulator, Auxiliary Bus Regulator etc., switching frequency refers the switch on or off the circuit in the particular frequency
