Efficiency and Power
Losses
The average efficiency is an assumption for a typical application where the
power supply is loaded with the following:
•
25% of the nominal load for 25% of the time
•
50% of the nominal load for 25% of the time
•
75% of the nominal load for 25% of the time
•
100% of the nominal load for 25% of the time
