PicoPSU powering dreamcast

Post by grayfox126 »

I am somewhat confused on the wiring of the picoPSU to power the dreamcast. Might someone explain, provide a diagram or point to a post that may have already covered this? I'm more of a visual learner so a diagram would be great!

Thanks in Advance

Go to the second to last post. There is a diagram there drawn by someone making a portable Dreamcast. It's pretty self explanatory though, 12v to 12v, 5v to 5v, 3.3v to 3.3v, GND to GND. In the diagram there are no GND's drawn in (Dreamcast is not Grounded and the such) so just draw in your own line or whatever from the GND on the dreamcast to the G on the Pico PSU. Also remember to connect PS_ON to a GND.
