Peaks and Valleys
Some power supplies specify a peak load capability to support loads that are higher than the nominal continuous power for short periods. In these applications the average power required is typically significantly lower than the peak demand.
Applications that require high peak currents include print heads, pumps, motors, and disk drives. These products are found in factory automation, medical pumping systems, fluid and material handling, robotics, power tools, machining, packaging, test, dispensing systems and printers.
