Power Supply is an electronic device of the computer hardware that has the shape of a square / box and located at the rear of the computer case. The function of the power supply itself to change the electric current from the AC voltage into DC voltage to be supplied to the computer hardware. Power Supply has an output voltage that varies depending on the needs of individual hardware components of the computer. Any type of power supply there are two kinds: power supply AT and ATX power supply type.
In addition to the output of the power supply there are many different connectors that have different functions according to the needs of the hardware on the computer, but the same goal which is to provide voltage to each of the hardware on the computer. Here is a function of the power supply connectors:
- 20/24 pin ATX motherboard connector, a connector which is directly connected to the motherboard, which provides the primary voltage source to the motherboard.
- 4/8 connector pin 12 V, the connector is also commonly called the P4 connector because it was first used with Pentium IV processor computers. This connector provides power to work specifically for the processor component.
- 6 pin AUX Power Cable, this component serves to provide power to the component-based PCIe VGA cardyang.
- 4-pin peripheral power connector cable, this connector is used to provide power to a wide range of computer hardware components such as: optical card, fan casing, and hard drives.
- Floppy Disk Drive, this connector has a relatively small size are used to provide power to the floppy disk.
- SATA Power Cable, a connector used to provide voltage on hardware that uses a SATA connector like the hard drive.
