Re: [PLUG] SCSI cases


The 5V line (Pin 9?) is for stand-by power to the mobo. Could I use that five volts to power a debounce IC to control the power-on pin (Pin 14)?

I saw the tester for $12.75 (not including shipping). It's big. Maybe it has a big resitor in it?

There's one pin that you have to short to ground to turn the supply on. It's pin 14 (PS_ON#) on the Motherboard connector. That's the one just to the left of the latch. You can short it to pin 15 or 16 (COM), the pins inline with the latch or to pin 13. The Apple power supply works the same basic way but I think the connector is different. You still need a load on the 5V line. Cyberguys (www.cyberguys.com) lists one for ~$10.
