80PLUS is for the traditional AC-DC ATX power where the whole efficiency is larger than 80%. For DC-DC PSU, the efficiency is larger than 94%. Accounting for the efficiency of the AC-DC power adapter, the whole efficiency can easily exceed 80%.
The peak power heavily depends on the heatsink and it is hard to test. In our lab test, we did get more than 400W peak power output in a short duration with active fan faced to the PSU. However, we do not encourage you to use larger than 400W peak so we understate the peak power value.
The retail version of X300 is under mass production now and would come to market in July. We have another product named X3-ATX-300, so this time we use X300 as the model name.
This Frank Tang from Pico-Box. I have gone over your discussion and want to post the status of our new PSU.
- The PSU model will be X300, as we already have X3-ATX-300 and X7-ATX-500 which have been used by several customers in America and Europe.
- The second prototype has been sent to Micheal...
Z4 is an upgrade version of our Z3. The main purpose is to increate the DC-DC converting efficiency (larger than 90%) so that less heat is generated. More comments are needed from customers so that we can continue doing optimisation on Z4.
