ATX PSU specifications, version 2.1

Post by TerryW » Thu Aug 22, 2002 6:32 pm

Has anyone seen a PSU manufactured with the optional 6-pin wiring connector (per the ATX specifications version 2.1)?

The ATX specifications are interesting to read and can be viewed at http://www.formfactors.org/developer/sp ... atx2_1.pdf

On pages 22 & 23 of this specification, pin 2 (FanC) is an input which can control the PSU fan. It would be easy to develope a small switch with resistors to attach to this connector.
