Title: Amiga 3000 Power Supply
Post by: Robert17 on February 12, 2006, 06:19:34 PM

Hey all, I'm about to try and convert a newly aquired A3000 to a newer PSU, I've been looking at micro/flex atx ones, I wondered if there's a site about that has a diagram of the power pinouts that are labelled etc?

Also has anyone done this already, and can recommend a good psu that fits okay?

AFAIK most PC ATX/microATX PSU's have PCB's the same size. It seems you need a proper ATX psu, because the A3000 needs -5vdc (microATX PSU's do not supply -5vdc).

You will also need to move some jumpers because an ATX PSU doesn't supply the 'TICK' signal.

I think Amigakit  (http://www.amigakit.com)sell an ATX to A3/4000 PSU adapter.
