> +12V sense for detecting voltage drop or something
This is actually the best bit, incredibly smart idea. It's a kelvin connection to ensure that you get 12V at the motherboard, regardless of power dissipation in the wire.
- thedance 7y agoWhy is it important to have absolute accuracy on the 12V pin?
- magicalhippo 7y agoNot absolute accuracy, but you can easily drop a few volts on transmission losses if the cable is poor or damaged.
