Disassembly of a Cheap Power Supply - Don't Use Cheap Power Supplies!

TCG Productions Facebook Page:   / tcgproductions03   Teardown and a completely informal analysis of the craptastic power supply that killed the dumpster-dived computer's motherboard featured in last week's video. The Weltrend WT7520 IC is the PWM controller and supervisor IC controlling the entire power supply. A copy of the datasheet from February 2005 is available here: https://web.archive.org/web/202602180... The only listed protections on the datasheet are OVP and UVP. No OPP/SCP/OTP to be found.
