An Apple IIc USB-C Power Delivery adapter #VintageComputing #Apple #USB-PD
X/Twitter user mozzwald (Joe) has created a wonderful Apple IIc USB-C Power Delivery adapter. The dongle will negotiate 15V at 2A with a USB PD supply to power an Apple IIc computer.
Replace your old bulky power supply or brick with this slim USB-C Power Delivery (PD) adapter for your Apple IIc computer. The adapter has a USB Type-C input which will negotiate 15V with a PD power supply. A DIN7 female connector supplies 15V / 2A out to the Apple IIc. If there is an over current condition the adapter will shut off power to the Apple IIc for protection. The DIN connector (black) and case (bone white) are 3D printed parts.
An external USB Type-C Power Delivery supply and Type-C cable is required. This will not work with a simple 5V USB supply or USB-A to USB-C cable.
