What are the benefits of DC to DC circuitry?
DC to DC modules possess important benefits regarding the stability of your PSU: • There is no minimum load for 12v, 5v and 3.3v. Since 5v and 3.3v are transferred from 12v, there is always indirect load to 12v from each. And because there is no min. load, there will not be compatibility issues with other systems. • The working frequency of DC to DC circuitry is higher than Magnetic Amplifier circuitry. Therefore, a PSU with DC to DC circuitry can provide more stable voltage to motherboard chipsets and memory. • The DC to DC module uses low voltage MOSFET which has low on-state loss. When transferring 12v to 5v or 3.3v, Magnetic Amplifier circuitry has 70 – 80% efficiency, while DC to DC can reach 90%.
