Power losses typ. 1.5W 1.5W with activated shut-down
typ. 9.5W 9.8W at 48V, 0A (no load)
typ. 24.1W 25.0W at 48V, 10A (half load)
typ. 46.3W 48.4W at 48V, 20A (full load)
*) The average efciency is an assumption for a typical application where the power supply is loaded with 25% of the nominal load for 25%
of the time, 50% of the nominal load for another 25% of the time, 75% of the nominal load for another 25% of the time and with 100%
of the nominal load for the rest of the time.
