dcer10 Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Hi All,Ive been having some trouble with my SID and its PSU (not the board, the actual PSU brick) and I came across this article on the web which I found interesting and thought others might like to read it. It shows how to test out the PSU (they actually use a very odd way to do it I think, use a multimeter instead!!). Its also got some other info about the PSU that might be interesting background reading (or not) :)http://personalpages.tds.net/~rcarlsen/cbm/pstester.txtAll the best,John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moebius Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 It shows how to test out the PSU (they actually use a very odd way to do it I think, use a multimeter instead!!).Hi,The test procedure is not that strange at all: It uses lamps as artificial load to stress test PSU for faults.But as You said, checking for correct voltages is good enough (for us)Moebius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
