Atng

What does everyone think of ATNG?

I've seen reviews of a couple of rosewill ATNG units.

They seem to perform well.

Look at the voltage regulation, it's almost perfect. Efficiency is kind of bad as well as the PF, but look at the ripple! 35mv dumping 55C out the back! 10mv lower in the cold test. Too bad Fujiyuu on the secondary, though you could always just recap!

Those two didn't do as good, not as good in the voltage regulation department, but ripple did pretty good. 12v ripple stayed under 70mv, but 5v and 3.3v ripple was a little high and went out of spec on the (unrealistic) crossloading tests.

Re: Atng

I find that there are better alternatives for the price. I have 2 CU-500B modular units which I think are built by ATNG.

I've recapped both units and one of them works perfectly but the other one stopped working after a thunderstorm. I've tried changing the fuse but it blew immediately upon power up. I don't know what else could be wrong with it [MOV?] or if its even worth trying to repair. Overall, I dislike the build quality. The pcb, parts and especially the housing reminds me of cheap retrofitted crapola supplies.

I believe those are sirtec's. The only 500W atng's are non-modular.
