kinmami Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 It does replace the original DIN-7 connector. It comes with a polymeric fuse (hold 1.25A, trip 2.5A with the intervention time <400ms), TVS diode (clamping voltage <5.6V) and noise filter for complete protection and safeguard of your motherboard. Able to provide up to 5V / 3A (15W) thru the USB type C cable. The stock PSU from Atari was 5V / 1.5A (7.5W) but hadn't any Over Current, Over Voltage, or Short Circuit protection. project 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koolmoecraig Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I'm sure there is a market to sell these if they were pre-built. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Wouldn't it just be easier to buy one of these cables instead of hacking up the power port? https://www.8bitclassics.com/product/atari-xl-xe-usb-power-cable/ If you need to plug in a power source with a USB-C port, there's always adapters...

Bee Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 In my case I was looking at potability when I proposed this on the Nuc+576. The point is USBc will become more prevalent going forward and I was trying to reduce vertical space. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact the EU now wants all smartphones & other recharagable devices (including Apple products) to use USB-C by 2024. That's why I got some microUSB to USB-C adapters for my existing devices...
