Common applications include motors, pumps, printer heads, robotics, etc. In cases such as these a power supply capable of delivering a high peak load when needed can be a huge benefit if it is sized both for the nominal load that is required and also the peak power amount.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">Attached is an article by Ken Peterson of XP Power where he helps to outline some of the benefits of using a peak rated supply and what information is needed in order to make the right selection for your power supply.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">Please let us know if you have any comments or questions about peak power.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://xppower.com/" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">http://xppower.com/</a></p> <div class="migration-injected-attachments"><div style="font-weight:bold;margin:15px 0 5px 0;">Attachments:</div><div></div><table style="border:0;"><tbody><tr><td width="160"><span class="_se_attachment" id="attid_https://www.element14.com/community/api/core/v3/attachments/1797"><a href="https://community.element14.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-00/Peak-Power-_2D002D00_-XP-Power.pdf">community.element14.com/.../Peak-Power-_2D002D00_-XP-Power.pdf</a></span></td><td><span style="font-size:80%;">Peak Power -- XP Power.pdf</span></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: sp:xp_power, peak-power, power_supply, ac_dc, guide, power, peak, peak_power</div>
