2.11 Electrical Considerations
2.11.1 Power Consumption
Table 55 lists voltage and current measurements for a computer that contains the Desktop Board
D845PEBT2 and the following:
•
2.8 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor with a 512 KB cache
•
32 MB AGP card
•
512 MB DDR 266 SDRAM
•
3.5-inch diskette drive
•
10 GB IDE hard disk drive
•
12X IDE DVD/40X CD-ROM drive
•

This information is provided only as a guide for calculating approximate power usage with
additional resources added.
Values for the Windows XP Professional desktop mode are measured at 32-bit colors, 75 Hz
refresh rate, and screen resolution of 800 by 600 pixels. AC watts are measured with the computer
connected to a typical 300 W power supply, at nominal input voltage and frequency, with a true
RMS wattmeter at the line input.
✏
NOTE
Actual system power consumption depends upon system configuration. The power supply should
comply with the recommendations found in the ATX/ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide,
Version 1.1 (see Section 1.4 on page 17 for specification information).

2.11.2 Add-in Board Considerations
The Desktop Board D845PEBT2 is designed to provide 2 A (average) of +5 V current for each
add-in board. The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded Desktop Board
D845PEBT2 (all five expansion slots and the AGP slot filled) must not exceed 12 A.
