optimized power supply building show and tell

subatomic · February 10, 2006

Hi guys, I built a little board to recieve power from the c64's transformer, and it turned out nice so I thought I'd show it to you:

The finished power board, converts the c64 power adapter to 5VDC and 14VDC.

Fitting seemlesly with the original c64 power/serial panel, it also has an on/off switch,

and two serial ports - each of which is to be used by the banksticks

Installed the power board into the c64 case, nice fit, you'd never know it's not a c64 inside by looking at this panel...

As you can see it uses Thorsten's optimized PSU circuit design.

I plan to use this board for a 4xSID synth embedded in a c64 case with built in active mixer...
