low load Explanation: But, by definition, “low load” means the system isn’t using very much power to start with. Even if power-supply efficiency at low load isn’t quite as high as it is at full or near-full load conditions, can a few percentage points add up to anything significant? In fact, there are many reasons to be concerned about power losses at low load. http://electronicdesign.com/article/basics-of-design/low_loa... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 43 mins (2010-12-07 17:46:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- este "low load" vs "peak load": Paragraful premergator celui citat mai sus spune: We know that power circuits are designed to deliver peak efficiency when driving some specific “normal” load. They lose efficiency when operated in a wide range of load conditions, and the most drastic degradation occurs at the lightest load. The most extreme case would be “no load” Gol de sarcina nu se refera la zero, ci la low load, cand inca este cerere; la limita minima ... adica the low one within the lightest loads. |
