DocViper Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hello everyone, I am thinking about moving the Helios4 into a Inter-Tech SC-4100 case. The backplane in that case has only one Molex powerconnector. So is it possible to combine both power connectors on the board (J14 + J19) into one ? https://wiki.kobol.io/helios4/img/hardware/board_legend.jpg Thanks Br, Joe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gprovost Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hi, Yes it's not a problem at all. Both connectors are actually connected to the same power rails, so there is no difference between the 2. The reason we put 2 connectors was to be sure we don't exceed max power rating of the Molex pin, but honestly it was a bit overkill. So technically you could also not bother and just use one of the 2x connectors instead of both. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
