Default Re: Retired Texas TI99/4A engineer needs help please.

There's a gentleman here:-

http://www.stuartconner.me.uk/ti/ti.htm

-who writes:-

Quote:
The console motherboard, fitted with the TI Extended BASIC cartridge, draws the following current from the power supply board:

+5V: 950mA
+12V: 330mA
-5V: Didn't measure it, but should be pretty low - probably just a few milliamps

On the 'standard' power supply board, the +5V regulator is a switched mode design, and the +12V and -5V regulators are of the linear type.

The NanoPEB draws from the +5V supply ~75mA 'at rest', rising to ~85mA when accessing the CF card .
