Description

For big projects with big power needs, an AT or ATX power supply is a convenient source for 5V or 12V DC power. This cable adapter allows you to connect the 4-pin Molex connector from your power supply to a Berg floppy drive power connector, enabling you to tap into 5V or 12V lines for your projects.

Perfect for powering LEDs, VFD/LCD displays, or other electronics, even while the computer is powered. The cable has a 4-pin Molex connector matching hard drive/CD-ROM power cables and a Berg Floppy Drive Power connector at the other end which can be cut off if not needed.

Note: On some older drives, the 12V supply may be unstable unless there's a significant current load on the 5V line. In such cases, adding a 10 ohm 10 Watt power resistor between ground and 5V can stabilize the 12V line.

  • 50mm long cable (6")
  • 20AWG stranded core wires
  • Color-coded wires: two black ground wires, one red +5V, one yellow +12V
  • Compatible with any computer power supply
  • As of Sept 28, 2022, cable uses 20 AWG wires, not 18 AWG
