Burst Mode
With Tamura’s original tech-
nology, EPM , SPM , BPM
power modules can reduce
noise from the power source
up to 1/10
(comparison to our discrete
component)

Efficiency is the key for high performance power supply. To achieve this, switching method
is selected as for appropriate solution. The switching frequency is most like to be 30 to
150KHz. To improve efficiency more at low load, it is used to apply “ burst mode” . Burst
mode frequency is within the audible frequency band; power supply would generate audi-
ble noise at low load with Standby Mode, and it is needed to be minimized. Mostly the
roots of the audible noise was created by switching transfer. And depends on that struc-
tures, the level of noise would be changed.
