Eric,

 

FWIW, I am wiring up a power connector for the picoPSU-60-WI as I write
[Size N Coaxial DC Power Plug, RadioShack part # 274-1573.]. I hope to
have a "Second Light" picture soon.

Folks

 

John - W9DDD and I have been chatting a bit about future offerings based
on HPSDR. The PicoPSU came to mind, and at least on the mini-box site
there is a pretty big volume discount $50 down to $35 at 100 parts. A
couple of foreign sites show this item at 50 pounds. The quandary
regardless of whatever is decided is WHICH one would we choose?

 

Neither of these need a 10 ohm 10 watt load resistor to provide power,
as a full sized ATX power supply needs.

 

The 60/80W (80 watts peak) version uses a variable dc input from 6 to 26
VDC input which would be ideal for mobile use or powering off a
"station" power supply.

The 120 W version uses a fixed 12 V regulated power input and Chris says
it drops out at 13+ volts.

 

Is 60W likely to be able to power 3 or 4 or more project boards?

 

Also how many folks would be interested in this type of supply.

 

Just Phishing!

 

Thanks

Eric
