THE "MAINS TRANSFORMER ELIMINATOR"!

The "prophylaxis" against no-load energy losses inherent to conventional AC adapters.

PSAA05E is the name of our cost-effective answer to the international goal of minimizing no-load energy losses and standby current consumption in external power supplies.
For starters, let's be clear that the emphasis here is on reality: Even if saving energy and environmental resources are important and noble goals, the very life of the consumer electronics sector is based on "personal benefit vs. product cost."
The manufacturer, PHIHONG, designed the PSAA05 series for functionality and cost-effectiveness, to target applications that currently use conventional transformer power supplies with rectification. The PSAA05 is therefore the ideal replacement for these "current leeches."

Key Technical Details:

The compact PSAA5 linear eliminator adapter measures 6.6cm x 4cm x 2.7cm and weighs in at a mere 85g, whereas comparable mains transformers tip the scales at around 300g. A positive advantage indeed when one considers transportation costs alone. The worldwide input voltage range extends from 90VAC to 264VAC and the output delivers 5 / 15VDC with a static regulation tolerance of +/-5%.

The maximum nominal current is 1A, while overcurrent protection is 2A max. The rated temperature range extends from 0°C to 50°C,
a very friendly value for a plug-in type power supply.


 

Power dissipation conforms to all existing and conceived worldwide limits - according to CEC, Energy Star, ECOC, etc. No-load consumption is 0.3W max. and efficiency is 65%. Safety approvals and international listings as a "stand-alone" power supply furthermore provide ease of implementation in applications that target international markets.
