Hi, I have to choose some power modules for my board. My point is when ever i have looked up boards they have used power modules with more current than the maximum current requirement for the target module. Say for example , If i want provide a module for RAM , DDR3 UDIMM , the typical ratings are 1.5 V and 3 A. But the modules used have been designed to give more current. Can some one give a reason for this over design. And how much percentage should we over estimate the max current value Rahul R ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List forum is accessible at: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
