Hello,

There is a 15v AC to DC converter which I want to use to power 2.5 inch hard drives. The HDD only requires +5VDC.

I’m about to purchase one of these 5 converters. I haven’t been able to find any information on circuits or power conditioning between the supply and the physical connection to the SATA power interface. Can I plug the VDC out directly to the HDD and expect them to work?

The best info I’ve been able to find is ATX specification which calls for +/-5% voltage and ripple of <50 on the +5VDC, both conditions are met by this converter (+/-4% and 20).

Thanks!

Your technical reference number for this interaction is T4024625.
Was wondering if you need the Positive Logic On/Off or the Negative Logic On/Off which you picked.
there are a few more options listed below with both positive and negative options.
Yes, these can be directly plugged into your DiskDrive.
All have 9V-53V Input
I6A4W020A033V-000-R = Positive Logic On/Off 3.3V-40V, 10A Output
I6A4W020A033V-001-R = Negative Logic On/Off 3.3V-40V, 10A Output

I6A4W020A033V-000-R = Positive Logic On/Off 3.3V-15V, 20A Output
I6A4W020A033V-001-R = Negative Logic On/Off 3.3V-15V, 20A Output
All are stocking parts.

n that converter’s datasheet, the voltages for power on/off are listed:

Turn on input voltage — 8 — V
Turn off input voltage — 7 9 V

Does this mean the device will not output power if the jumpers are supplied 0-9V, and will supply power if the jumpers are supplied with 8+V?

Thanks
