Intel Desktop Board DB85FL Technical Product Specification 2.5 Electrical Considerations 2.5.1 Power Supply Considerations CAUTION The +5 V standby line from the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options. Additional power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator. Due to improvements in 4th generation Intel Core processor power efficiency, the requirements for the processor's power supply have changed. More specifically, the latest Power Supply Design Guide rev 1.3 has indicated a minimum current of 0.05A on +12 V2DC and recommends 0A. This is to prevent Power Supply Unit (PSU) protection from triggering during minimum loading. Intel recommends that system integrators and builders check the latest list of tested PSUs to find out which are capable of supporting the 4th generation Intel Core processor. This list may be found at: http://www.intel.com/go/powersupplies/. From the filters at the top right of the page, set 12V2 Min Load 0A to "Yes" to see which PSUs are capable of supporting the processor's new power requirements. The power supply must comply with the indicated parameters of the ATX form factor specification. • The potential relation between 3.3 V DC and +5 V DC power rails • The current capability of the +5 VSTBY line • All timing parameters • All voltage tolerances For example, for a high power system consisting of a supported 95 W processor (see Section 1.3 on page 16 for a list of supported processors), 4 GB DDR3 RAM, one high end video card, one hard disk drive, one optical drive, and all board peripherals enabled, the minimum recommended power supply is 460 W. For example, for a low power system consisting of a supported 45 W processor (see Section 1.3 on page 16 for a list of supported processors), 2 GB DDR3 RAM, integrated graphics, one SSD, one optical drive, and no extra onboard peripherals enabled, the minimum recommended power supply is a 320 W.
