Summary

Corsair AX1500i Product Features

Digitally Controlled Power

Utilizes a Digital Signal Processor for optimized efficiency and tighter voltage regulation, enhancing system stability.

Quiet, Efficient Operation

80 PLUS Titanium certified for lower heat and quieter fan profile; fan remains idle at low loads for silent operation.

Corsair Link Connectivity

Monitors performance, configures settings like over-current protection points, and controls fan profiles in real-time.

Brilliant Design

Features a fully modular cable system for easy installation and a self-test switch to verify functionality before connection.

Technology and Benefits

Advanced Digital Control

Offers superior dynamic response and on-the-fly performance optimization across the full operating range.

80 PLUS Titanium Efficiency

Achieves extremely high energy efficiency (94%) through sophisticated electrical design and advanced magnetics.

Stable DC Voltage Regulation

Provides exceptionally stable power and compensates for cable voltage drop, ensuring tight regulation.

Low DC Output Ripple and Noise

Features individual DC-DC regulation, synchronous rectification, and advanced filtering to minimize ripple.

Key Benefits and Features

Reduced Component Count

Digital control eliminates external components for increased reliability and space for extra features.

User Friendly Modular Cables

Fully modular, low-profile cables offer maximum flexibility, airflow, and reduced cable clutter.

Self Test Switch

Allows PSU validation before system installation by confirming DC output voltages and fan functionality.

Safety and Protection Features

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)

Shuts down the PSU if DC outputs exceed specified voltage levels to protect components.

Over-Current Protection (OCP)

Ensures DC voltage rail outputs stay within safe operating limits, configurable as single or multi-rail.

Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)

Shuts down the PSU when internal temperature reaches a set point due to overloading or fan failure.

Short-Circuit Protection (SCP)

Shuts down the PSU to prevent damage if any output shorts to another rail or ground.
