Constrained by a Power Supply’s Operating Limits? Our New White Paper Offers Options

Power supply manufacturers sometimes hear from customers in tricky situations, with questions such as: “Can I operate the power supply outside its rated voltage range.” Or, “What happens if I exceed my maximum output current?” and “Can I operate my power supply outside its temperature range?” Each scenario has its risks, but we also understand that designers sometimes consider taking those risks. While disregarding the power supply's specifications isn't advisable, power supply manufacturers will do their best to offer as many safe options as possible.

Our new white paper, Stretching the Limits of Power Supplies: Issues and Answers, provides an overview of some of the risks associated with operating a power supply outside its specification limits, along with sound strategies for selecting an ideal power supply when confronted with situations like undervoltage as well as output current and thermal limits.
