How the tier was reached

  1. MISSED

    Tier A - reference classspec 12.9

    • Measured electrical behaviour: Electrical performance criticised: Loose 12V transient response.
    • Too many failed criteria for this tier (1)

    Tier B - strong mainstreamspec 12.10

    • Measured electrical behaviour: Electrical performance criticised: Loose 12V transient response.
    • Too many failed criteria for this tier (1)
  3. MISSED

    Tier C - adequatespec 12.11

    • Measured electrical behaviour: Electrical performance criticised: Loose 12V transient response.
    • Too many failed criteria for this tier (1)
  4. MISSED

    Tier D - basicspec 12.12

    • Measured electrical behaviour: Electrical performance criticised: Loose 12V transient response.
  • Insufficient evidence, unknown platform or unsatisfactory architecture (spec 12.13)
  • Modifiers do not apply to E and F

Missing evidence

These criteria could not be resolved. They lower the confidence index rather than count against the unit.

  • Active power factor correction
  • Electrolytic capacitor temperature rating
  • Protection coverage
  • Over-current protection declared
  • Over-temperature protection declared
  • Protection trip points
  • +12V ripple
  • Voltage regulation
  • +12V transient response
  • Independent laboratory evidence
  • Manufacturer warranty
