The following table includes the ripple levels we measured on the TPG-750AH3FSGR’s rails. The limits, according to the ATX specification, are 120mV (+12V) and 50mV (5V, 3.3V, and 5VSB).
Test | 12V | 5V | 3.3V | 5VSB | Pass/Fail |
10% Load | 29.7 mV | 6.1 mV | 6.6 mV | 4.3 mV | Pass |
20% Load | 26.8 mV | 7.0 mV | 8.5 mV | 4.4 mV | Pass |
30% Load | 9.9 mV | 7.3 mV | 9.3 mV | 4.5 mV | Pass |
40% Load | 11.9 mV | 8.6 mV | 9.9 mV | 5.7 mV | Pass |
50% Load | 11.9 mV | 10.1 mV | 11.0 mV | 6.0 mV | Pass |
60% Load | 12.7 mV | 13.0 mV | 12.9 mV | 9.2 mV | Pass |
70% Load | 14.2 mV | 12.5 mV | 12.9 mV | 7.4 mV | Pass |
80% Load | 15.4 mV | 14.6 mV | 14.7 mV | 8.7 mV | Pass |
90% Load | 16.8 mV | 15.3 mV | 15.8 mV | 9.5 mV | Pass |
100% Load | 18.8 mV | 16.6 mV | 16.7 mV | 10.5 mV | Pass |
110% Load | 19.9 mV | 17.5 mV | 17.4 mV | 10.3 mV | Pass |
Crossload 1 | 22.7 mV | 12.4 mV | 14.4 mV | 6.1 mV | Pass |
Crossload 2 | 18.3 mV | 12.3 mV | 11.3 mV | 8.1 mV | Pass |
The unit delivers clean rails. We might not see the perfect results that Corsair's units deliver, but still all rails stay below 20mV ripple with full load at 47°C.
Ripple Oscilloscope Screenshots
The following oscilloscope screenshots illustrate the AC ripple and noise registered on the main rails (+12V, 5V, 3.3V and 5VSB). The bigger the fluctuations on the screen, the bigger the ripple/noise. We set 0.01 V/Div (each vertical division/box equals 0.01V) as the standard for all measurements.
