Power supplies are generally rated on how much power they consume, not how much they supply.
But when there is a relatively direct connection between the two, what does it matter?
You're demonstrating that you really don't know enough about this subject to give qualified comments on it. Perhaps if you took some electrical engineering courses, specifically a course on electric power. Impedance matching is a very big issue, as well as Q-factors and other things which all have HUGE impacts on efficiency.
Aaron, I appreciate your comments except when you're BS'ing just for the sake of it. This is not the right list for a discourse on switchmode powersupply design. In mid 1908s when I worked in electronics for s short while, a switchmode supply could achieve 80% efficiency without any major design effort. I'm assuming that this is still possible, even with sub-standard components and designers.
To get the 80+% efficiency across the board is NOT a trivial thing.
I have to disagree. Even a relatively poor or inexperienced design will achieve that. Aiming at 90% or higher is less than trivial.
You're really not qualified to advise others on this subject.
Please do tell us exactly why you are qualified to judge that. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
