Graphs 115V

This graph is generated by the PPA Standby Power Analysis software which takes full control of the power analyzer during the whole procedure. This application features all of the EN50564 & IEC62301 test limits for standby power software testing.

115V

This graph depicts the PSU`s efficiency throughout its entire operational range. For the generation of the efficiency and noise graphs we set our loaders to auto mode through our custom-made software before trying thousands of possible load combinations.

115V

The PSU`s noise in its entire operational range and under 30-32 °C ambient is depicted in this graph. The X axis represents the load on the +12V rail(s) while the Y axis is the load on the minor rails.

Indicative Performance

The PSU`s efficiency under high ambient temperatures with 115V and 230V input. For this graph the results of the 10-110% load regulation table are used.

This graph depicts the efficiency levels of the 5VSB rail with 115V and 230V input.
