Antec HCP-750 Overview and Specifications
Today
we take a look at the Antec HCP-750. Let's start with the delivery
contents. Apart from the PSU itself the package includes a power cable,
four screws to mount
the device in the PC case, a short user guide, and the
modular connectors in a separate
bag. The HCP is protected from dust and dirt
by a bag during shipping. The product features include 80 Plus Gold
Certification, the 16-AWG connection cables (large wire cross-section),
the 135mm PWM fan, and the
gilded connectors. In addition Antec
ofers a 5-year warranty, which is a common feature for a product like
this.
The HCP-750 has four +12V outputs, each of which can be loaded with 40A
according to the
manufacturer. Almost the full power is provided here because of the DC-to-DC
VRM. The +5V and +3.3V
combined output is 150W. +5VSB can handle 3A (or 15W), and the
label shows the various safety certifications. Antec products can be
bought all over the world, so there are many country-specific
requirements.
Antec uses a DC fan from ADDA with the model number ADN512UB-A9B. This
one is controlled via PWM, so the duty cycle will be modulated. As a
Sanyo Denki employee reported at Computex 2011, PWM is much better for
the fan than voltage control. However, it should be mentioned that Antec
has patented the use of PWM fans in PC power supplies, which
complicates their use for other manufacturers. The fan needs 0.44A from
the +12V output, and the
nine fan blades pictured above are pretty well made.
