I'm looking for a IBM PC/ XT power supply for
European voltages, 220 -240 V
at 50Hz.
The PC is model 5150, the XT is model 5160.
WHICH IS IT?
I have three part numbers but can't find specs for
them:
5150438
5150439
6323357
Look in the "PC Technical Reference Manual", and in the
"PC/XT Technical
Reference Manual"
The original PC (5150) had a power supply of about 65 watts.
That proved to be a bit inadequate, and when the XT (5160) came out with a
hard drive, IBM upped the power supply to about 130 watts.
The two can physically interchange, and for a while most dumpsters were
full of 5150 power supplies (when people replaced them with the higher
power ones.)
WHY are you looking for one?
Is yours dead? IS IT REPAIRABLE?
Which one is your dead one?
