| SIP | Surge: MOV Inrush: NTC thermistor & bypass relay |
The minor rails have high OCP levels, while the 5VSB rail is on the low side, given our experience so far.
The OPP level is fairly normal at 131%, and the power-good signal is accurate. Finally, there is surge protection in the form of an MOV and an NTC thermistor, along with a bypass relay to handle large inrush currents.
