[Power Supply and Power issues] 3.11.5. There is more than one kind of Lisa Power Supply, which one do I have?
The Lisa Power Supply Unit (PSU) is one of two kinds:
Original Apple PSU aka 1.2 Amp
This PSU is identified by one of the following rating labels beside the power cord connector:
- Units configured for North America
- Part number: 620-6103
- 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 1.2 Amp, 150 W
- Units configured for outside of North America
- Part number:
- 220-240 V~, 50 Hz, .7 A, 150 W
DataPower PSU aka 1.8 Amp
This PSU is identified by the following labels:
- Units configured for North America
- Part number: 699-0189
- 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 1.8 Amp, 150 W
- Units configured for outside of North America
- Part number: 699-0190
- 220-240 V~, 50 Hz, 1 A, 150 W
Notes
- The DataPower PSU can be switched between 120V and 220V by moving some internal jumpers.
- The Apple PSU can be switched between 120V and 220V by moving an internal jumper and replacing the standby power filament transformer with one of the appropriate voltage.
- The DataPower PSU was installed in the Lisa 2/10, as the extra load of the Widget is too much for the Apple PSU.
- The DataPower PSU is generally considered much more reliable and easier to repair than the original Apple design.
- Many Lisas had their power supply upgraded to the DataPower unit.
