Re: Suppose I add ..............

I hope I'm not reading this right - that he is trying to tie the outputs of

two power supplies together, even if they are supposedly the same voltages.

That is a definite NO NO. Even if they were perfectly identical, it

is far too risky. I'm an E.E., and I would *definitely* advise against

this!

Now, if you want to split up the loads and run them off of separate

supplies, that would be different, but that's a pain in the butt, too, and

not really advisable.

Re: Suppose I add ..............

Bill,

I was *afraid, very afraid* to ask!! (Also known as the "shot-heard-the

world) Kinda like piggy-backing two car batteries in parallel for *extra*

current capabilities, Huh?

If the wind is in just the right direction, you can just about smell the

burnt aroma--that's just the more innocuous stuff. Oh, that whithish-power,

that *only* electrolyte.

Re: Suppose I add ..............

Did a second read on you post Bill,

In the fraction of a second it would take for the "power good " signals to

be in virtually perfect sync., can you imagine what start-up waveforms

(clean/dirty/spikey) one would see if doing the first of the two

situations--MUCH less scenario two.

IMHO, if (1) is what Dan' wants to do is get an advanced EE, and STILL have

a lot of time to kill.

Re: Suppose I add ..............

I don't think he's trying to parallel the power supplies, but rather is

using one power supply for mainboard and some of the peripherals and a

second supply for some additional devices.

This can be done, but needs a very careful arrangement, apart from the

problem of providing the power good signal, in order to avoid destroying

something.
