The power consumption of the presented board is about six times lower than the limit fixed
by version 4 of the Code of Conduct. Even though the performance seems to be
disproportionally better than requirements, it is worth noting that often AC-DC adapter or
battery charger manufacturers have very strict requirements about no load consumption
and if the converter is used as an auxiliary power supply, the line filter is often the main line
filter of the entire power supply that increases greatly the standby consumption.

Several criteria can be adopted to measure the performance of a converter. One criterion is
to measure the output power (or the efficiency) when the input power is equal to 1 Watt. This
measurement is shown in
to measure the output power (or the efficiency) when the input power is equal to 1 Watt. This
measurement is shown in
for different input voltage values.
