Enhance Electronics first Modular Flex ATX power supply
This has been a long time coming but finally we are there. Engineering samples done, Design Verification Done.
Images are the Engineering sample. Final product will be with a black case, Black loom, Black top layer PCB.
Wire type is being finalized. Initially we were going to go with braided looms, but due to limited flexibility concerns we're just awaiting confirmation on Silicone looms.
Current loom plan, tbc shortly
24pin ATX - 18cm
CPU 4+4pin 25cm
GPU 6+2pin 25cm
2x SATA: 15cm + 15cm (second length likely to be shorter as 15cm was a min length with braided)
2x Molex 20cm + 15cm (as above)
Back in the summer we were looking at these 2 layouts at the bottom of the page. The single (not very modular, but 150mm PSU length) and the 4 connector (but 165mm psu length)
Obviously the latter was pushed for. The single is more in consideration with competing against say Seasonic SSP-300SUG and some FSP models. Which tend to be more in industrial applications. Which is a high volume are sales wise for Flex, but not really right for SFF.
Also initially the fan was to be an ADDA fan. For Industrial and server that's absolutely fine.
We did our own testing here on the engineering sample, indicating the quieter Yate Loon to appear suitable. After much pushing Enhance applied thermal verification testing with the Yate Loon and passed it, although for a slightly derated thermal Spec 0-40°C. With Adda 0 to 50°C. But with the Yate Loon fan the PSU is quiet with the RPM sitting under around 2000rpm most of the way to 60% loads before heading on more linear rise in the upper load echelons.
This gives great quiet space upto around 270W loads which is ideal for many SFF configurations with Flex ATX whilst also hitting the sweat spot for efficiency.
We're looking to see if we can get the PSU into Cybenetics testing in the future, just a question of funding that 2,000USD cost. Just to independently confirm the efficiency and noise levels.
Shipping will be in April, a little longer than we'd like but this due to Chinese New Year which adds to the lead time.
