12V, 90Watt ATX Power Supply
Quick Installation Guide
Version 1.0c
P/N picoPSU-90
Introduction
Based on the electrical design of the picoPSU-120, the picoPSU-90
is a small yet powerful and fully compliant ATX power supply
designed to power a wide variety of motherboard from a single 12V
regulated power source.
The PICOPSU-90 is the only snap power supply solution for
general purpose motherboards. Compatible with an entire range of
mini-ITX, UATX or full size ATX motherboards the picoPSU-90
provides cool, silent power for system. The PICOPSU-90 has many
advantages over a regular power supply:
-Smallest ATX PSU to date
-100% silent operation
-Low heat dissipation with efficiency over 95%
-Plugs directly into the motherboard’s power connector, no cable
mess

disconnected in case the user does not need any peripheral.
Additionally, the cable harness can be made to any length or output
connector type provided that the max load does not exceed 6A for
GND return. Please look under specifications for the mating
connector type.
Removing the picoPSU-90
In order to remove the picoPSU you must release the power
connector latch and then remove the unit. Gently lift the picoPSU
out from the ATX connector, by grabbing from the picoPSU PCB,
not from components or the wire harness.

Switched input
At max load, forced air ventilation is required. For fanless operation de-rate the output of the 3.3
and 5V rails by ~25%. Peak load should not exceed 120 seconds. Combined power output
should not exceed more than 90watts.

Overload protection
Over load protection will be effected when either of the loads (+5V
& +3.3V) exceeds > 200% Max Load.
Turn-on Delay
After turning on, at least 20 ms will be needed for the rise of +5VSB
output voltage (measured from 10% to 95%) to reach its peak.
Remote ON/OFF control (PS_ON)
Logic level is LOW - Output voltage is enabled (PS_ON pin)
Logic level is HIGH - Output voltage is disabled (PS_ON pin)
PWR_GD
Logic level is low: PWR_GD=OK
Logic level is high: PWR_GD=not OK (10.5V<V(in)>13.5V or other
fault conditions)
Operating environment: Temperature: -20 to 65 degree
centigrade.
NOTE: Thermal shutdown occurs at 105-115C.
Relative Humidity: 10 to 90 percent, non-condensing.
Efficiency, MTBF: MTBF >50K hours at 55Celsius, 60watt.
Shipping and storage: Temperature -40 to +85 degree
centigrade. Relative humidity 5 to 95 percent, non-condensing
Warranty
1 Year Limited Warranty statement. Warranty is void if
maintenance or calibration is performed by end-user or by use in
