As an overall current usage limitation on the power supply, do not exceed a combined power output of 167 watts for the +5 and +3.3 volt outputs.
The ISA slots on the server board are rated at a maximum of 4.5 amperes per slot. The ISA specification recommends supporting an average of 2.0 amperes per slot. The average current usage should not exceed 3.0 amperes per slot; that is, 15 watts.
The PCI slots on the server board are rated at a maximum of 5 amperes per slot. The maximum power allowed for each slot is 20 watts at +5 volts. The average current usage per slot should not exceed 3.0 amperes per slot; that is, 15 watts.
The cooling efficiency varies per slot; therefore, ensure that adequate cooling is available in the target
The total combined wattage for the system configuration must be less than the output of your power supply. Use the two worksheets in this section to calculate the power used by your server boards. For current and voltage requirements of
