The so-called PicoPSU market is a market that is mainly made up of sources such as HDPlex and low-quality copies of it , but Silverstone seems determined to expand the offer of this niche market with its AD 120 – DC.

This power supply comes without any type of housing, and is that its PCB format in the air will allow us a more flexible placement of the unit in any nook. of the box in which we are mounting the equipment, given that this type of power supply, smaller than the Fle x ATX or SFX, they are often used in custom cases for extremely small equipment.

However, the internal PCB only works as a way to convert the 12 V of its input to the voltages of the rails that require it, since the conversion of 220 V a 12 V is done on external power supply that we find in the same format as on screens and other devices, with a maximum intensity of 10 amps.

Your power of 120 W is only sufficient for very low power systems without dedicated graphics , but if demand is sufficient, Silverstone may consider building more powerful units. For now, both the date and the price at which the AD will arrive are unknown 120 – DC .
