Freaksomnia Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Ok i new at this and i have a question before i begin, can i power a singel sid (6581) and a core on a 12 V wall-adapter. I've been reading different things about this?? and how do i connect a normal powersupply to bolth the modules there is no scematic for it or do i just connect them seperet from the input.Are there people who power there singel 6581 Sid with a wall-adaptor. I would like to know before i begin, because it's mutch more easy to get a 12V suply than a 15 volt supply..Thanks in advace Freaksomnia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's enough info about this on www.uCApps.de, you could also look in my topic about the multi-voltage powersupply, it's in the Design Concepts board.Good luck searching!Cheers, Alex.

Wisefire Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 you could also use the original PSU from the C64.. and if you optimize it (search for optimized psu) you could get some very good results out of that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The site also said different things about the voltage for the sid, somewhere it said 15 V the other said 12 V so thats the source off my questions.And Alex i can't find the topc on you multi-voltage powersupply mabey you can past the link.Tanks for the answers guysGeert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wisefire Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 and its an easy, cheap and good alternative to his power supply! well actually his power supply is an alternative to this..but who is keeping score? im not :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
