Protection Features
Check out our PSUs 101 article to learn more about PSU protection features. Our protection features evaluation methodology is described in detail here.
Protection Features | |
OCP | 12V: 114.8A (138.3%), 12.181V 5V: 31.6A, 5.02V3.3V: 30.2A, 3.29V 5VSB: 4.2A (140%), 4.773V, 83.92mV ripple |
OPP | 1398.38W (139.84%) |
OTP | ✓ (190°C @ 12V heat sink) |
SCP | 12V: ✓ 5V: ✓ 3.3V: ✓ 5VSB: ✓ -12V: ✓ |
PWR_OK | Operates properly |
NLO | ✓ |
SIP | Surge: MOV Inrush: NTC thermistor & bypass relay |
The PSU's over-power limit is set high; it delivers almost 1400W before the corresponding protection feature kicks in. Over-temperature protection is set quite high as well, while the 5VSB rail should have a lower OCP point since ripple gets out of control at 4.2A.
There is short circuit protection on all rails, the power-good signal is accurate, and we observed functional surge/inrush current protection.
