POWER SUPPLY:
All
of the specifications herein are suggested. When
it
comes right
down to
it,
the machine is being powered by a well-defined supply,
the specifications of which will follow. If you're careful not to exceed
the suggested load for any port, you'll be able to fully load every
port. However, some of the internal ports can draw more than the
suggested amount; for example, an
8
megabyte expansion memory
card for the l00 pin bus may draw more than the suggested 2.5
Amps at
+
5VDC. The connector
is
capable of supplying more with-
out damage, but the extra current must be carefully worked into the
system power budget. Any hardware add-on device that draws more
than the suggested amount must state this clearly. External ports
typically have a true maximum available, not a suggested; budgeting
should apply to internal items only.
