<P><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Pico makes four supplies that seem to be candidates, maybe. According to their manuals, the -12v ratings are:</FONT>
<BR><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PicoPSU-120 50ma</FONT>
<BR><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PicoPSU-120-WI-32 100ma</FONT>
<BR><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PicoPSU-120-WI-25 100ma</FONT>
<BR><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">PicoPSU-80 50ma</FONT>

<P><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">At the TAPR booth in Dayton I saw what looked like a Pico supply driving Janus and Ozy, so it appears that one of the supplies is appropriate for TWO boards. My question is while the Pico supplies be adequate as Mercury and others are added (excluding a PA). I notice that Mercury does not need -12v, but does it fit within the ratings for the other voltages?</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have seen the Pico PSU power supply plugged into the Atlas board with Janus and Ozy. This supply seems to be running close to its limits for theses two boards for the -12v requirement - I saw someplace that Janus & Ozy need about 70ma at -12v and the Pico is rated at 100ma. If other boards are going to require -12v as well, then the Pico is not a good choice. Can anyone help me out here?</FONT></P>
