Chip Fuses on MicroStar Motherboard
"Paul" wrote in message news:40567726$0$21071$afc38c87@... What would I be risking by jumpering accross the fuse chip pads? Are these things always fused, or do most motherboards run direct to +5v without a fuse? Are these fuse chips readily available? What value would be typical in this application? I'd use a pico fuse until you can get hold of an SMD. The 5V pad is probably straight into an internal power plane on the capable of sourcing the full power of the PSU 5A rail. No fuse on the motherboard, but the PSU might shut down if you have a hard short. |
