A590 troubles

[alexh]

Looking into rear of the A590 unit:

Code: [Select]


        u
      4   1
       3 2

    u = keyway
    1 = +5V
    2 = ground
    3 = power sense
    4 = +12V

It IS the same as a CD32 PSU and also pin compatible with C-64's 1541-II diskdrive's PSU.

If you wanted to do some soldering there is a way to make the A590 draw it's power from the A500
