Dynamic Loading
The output voltages should remain within the limits for the step loading and capacitive loading
specified in the following table. The load transient repetition rate should be tested between 50
Hz and 5 kHz at duty cycles ranging from 10%-90%. The load transient repetition rate is a test
specification. The step load may occur anywhere within the MIN load to the MAX load
conditions.

Notes:
The +12 V should be tested with 2200 F evenly divided between the four +12 V rails.

Capacitive Loading
The power supply should be stable and meet all capacitive loading requirements. The following
table outlines these conditions.

Closed-Loop Stability
The power supply should be unconditionally stable under all line/load/transient load conditions,
including capacitive load ranges. A minimum of 45° phase margin and -10 dB gain margin is
