I snagged a VaxStation 2000 box some time back, mainly
for the PSU. It
turns
out that it has a couple of lines, on the 9-pin MOLEX
main power output
connector, the purpose of which is not clear. There's one that seems to
float
///snippage////
I have three working plus a TK50 in an external box (same box), if that
isn't enough I must have 6 or so of the PSUs that I use for "projects".
The PSU wants a 10W load minimum on both the +5 and +12.
It's rated 160W OUTPUT. It easily runs a P166 with options.
The +12 is heafty enough to run a MAXTOR2190 with reserve
figure it for not less than 4A.
The remainder is on the +5, If memory serves it's good for 12A++.
The minus voltages are for RS232 type use figure them for .5A.
The "floating line" is powerfail and is open collector. I rarely use it.
Have fun
