160w Atx Pico repair - No 12v output

Hi,

I know these are only cheap, but would anyone here know how to repair an ATX pico?

It was working, then all the sudden it stopped outputting 12v.

12v is definitely going in.
 
The 3v is outputing voltage

But no 12v on the output.

Which part could be blown the stop the 12v output?

Re: Server PSU-powered GPU rig packages! Pico's, Risers, adapter cables, etc.

Is there some trick to getting these Pico PSUs to power on the motherboard that I'm just not seeing?  I have plugged the Pico PSU into the 24 pin connector on the mobo.  Plugged the EPS pigtail into the CPU EPS connector on the mobo.  Then plugged the 6 pin cable and barrel adapters together and plugged that into my server PSU's breakout board.  I get a blue light on the Pico PSU so it appears to be getting power properly... but when I hit the power button on my rig, nothing happens.  If I unplug the barrel adapter and plug it back in, I see the CPU fan spin for a second.  This is the same behavior you will see if you are using a regular ATX PSU and you pull and re-plug the power cable on it.  So it seems like everything should be connected properly... but it just won't power on.  If I remove the Pico PSU, and plug in a spare ATX PSU to the same 24 pin/EPS connectors, everything powers up just fine.  So, I know there is nothing else configured incorrectly.  My server PSU powers my GPUS just fine, so I know the server PSU  and breakout board works fine.


Also, Finsky... I sent you a couple of PMs about my previous order a few weeks ago.  I know you have been recovering from your disaster, so I've been patiently waiting, but if you could at least acknowledge that you got the PMs and what the plan is for fulfilling that order, I'd be grateful.



I have just had the same issue.

I uplugged working rig to add some new cards, plugged it all back in and fan spun on MB for a second then nothing.
So after pulling my hair out I realized the Pico had gone!

It’s outputting the 3v, but no 12v.

Hours wasted.

These Pico’s do not seem very robust.

I knew it was simple, as it couldn't deserialize that stat command.

I was desperate to get the temps, as im making a monitor to control 27 D3's!

I have a selenium tool i made to change pools and fans and frequency's.

But I'm building an API version for GPU and ASIC right now.

SSH tool, network scan (need to finish port scanner)

If you need a hand let me know. Smiley

cheers bro!

Found it!!

Code:
//From this
//output = sr.ReadToEnd().Replace("\x00", "");

//To this
output = sr.ReadToEnd().Replace("\x00", "").Replace("}{", "},{");

I'm working on something similar in WPF.

How are you getting temperature stats for S9's?

I just get 0 on my S9

I am making my PCI cables for server supplies with only 2 cables each plug using 1.5mm2 cable.

I have 27 sets to make for the new setup!  Shocked

I wasted so much time making 6 cable plugs it rediculous!

As long as the cable rating is well over what each plug is supplying the 2 pin cables will be fine.

I am building a windows app right now.

Auto profit switching with auto/manual exchange to BTC/ETH/USDT.

I am very close to beta testing.

Re: DIY 6x6-pin PCI-E cable using 14AWG wires for 006C extenders and a server PSU

I dont know US cable size standards..

But Yes solder 4 x 2.5mm cables to each live and neutral

Then solder all the 0.75mm cables into a neat solder join, add heat shrink, then join to the 2.5mm cables

I sometimes use electrical blocks rather than solder, but that gets messy.

I add a fly lead for power for fans etc (which is the 4th cable from the PSU)

You can even solder like a 2 x 6mm2 cable to the PSU then add a distribution block.

I've made 100's

Solder the pins on, don't crimp.

Get a system going, cut and strip cables one day (get the Mrs to do that)

Then tin 100's of pins and all the cable ends

Then solder cables, break pins off and push into plugs

It's tedious but more than doable

I use 0.75mm2 flex (2/3 sets of plugs) into 2.5mm2 with solder join -> PSU

Otherwise you have too many cables.
I use 6/8 2.5 cables to Power all the plugs

So far the new Overclocking UI looks like this:


@polymer_city
@zorvalth

Would you guys be ok with this?
In the new UI you could either use the global profile or create a new profile, tweak the OC and assign it to a specific job/s, the OC will get applied when the assigned job starts.
I also added copy/paste values, which lets you easily paste & save same values to different cards.

That's awesome!

Thank you for making the changes  Wink

As far as I am aware there is no load balancing on excavator? Devs??

@ cTnko - By global settings I meant - Have a global OC setting that can be copied to all cards
Either separate input or by being able to copy settings from one GPU to all cards
