What is the difference between AT & ATX power supply?

FSP (GB) Ltd. of FSP GROUP
The differences between AT & ATX power supply are the connector and output voltage. ATX is has a 20-pin connector for mainboard power while AT has two six-pin connectors. ATX has a 3.3V output and +5Vsb, but AT doesn??t. power supplies come with an on/off switch. ATX power supplies is not necessary. The on/off switch of ATX units is controlled through the motherboard. However, some models of ATX power supply do come with it. See similar questions...

What is the difference between ATX and Micro-ATX power supply?

FSP (GB) Ltd. of FSP GROUP

What is the difference between a transformer, a converter and a power supply?

General Electrical FAQ
A Transformer is an electrical device by which alternating current of one voltage is changed to another voltage using coils. There are several different types, but they all basically do the same thing - change the voltage. They are usually heavy for their size due to the weight of the coils (size and weight depends on their rating). A Converter is an electronic device that is used in some cases instead of a transformer. See similar questions...

What are the power supply requirements?

Elecraft K3 FAQ
The K3 DC voltage required is 13.8 V nominal/recommended; 11 V recommended minimum; transmit disabled below 10 V; system shutdown below 9.0 V. The K3 is portable, thus it's designed for operation with a 12-V vehicle battery or gel-cell. Estimated minimum current draw with no enabled options is 0.9 A on receive, 3 A at 10-W and 20 A at 100-W. These figures will be refined after further testing. On all HF bands, TX with a 12.0-V supply still allows 100 W+ output. See similar questions...

Allstarshop Online Center
The motherboard power connector has changed from 20-pin to 24-pin to better handle loads on the PCI Express bus. The SATA connection is official. The 6-pin Aux Power connector has been dropped. Circuitry has been upgraded to dual +12V outputs to maintain greater stability to the CPU and peripherals. In addition, overall +12V output has been increased to compensate for PCI Express expansion cards. A minimum efficiency of 60% under light load is now required. This is a significant improvement.
