Hi all,
I have a relatively new (from 2018) Corsair RM850x PSU that refuses to turn on.
The 5v standby rail is working fine, but when I try to turn it on it shuts itself off in a few milliseconds.
There are no obvious shorts to be found and this is what I can see with my oscilloscope:
- 3.3v and 5v hold their intended voltages fine for a few millisecond
- the 12v rail goes to 12v on startup and then goes into decline
- when the 3.3v and 5v rails are switched off the 12v rail momentarily increases a bit (probably perfectly normal)
- as per the datasheet, the overcurrent protection (OCP) is triggered when the OCP sense pin voltage exceeds 1v. As per my measurements, there are a few spikes above 1v but this is probably just noise?!
Any ideas as so what the problem might be or what I should be checking?
Thanks for your help!
