As a result, +12V (500 -750mA max, based mostly on the electrical characteristics of T2 used) and +5V (1A max) DC provides are obtainable for external use, while not affecting the traditional computer functions. Switch S1 is that the power on/off cum reset switch. Resistor R3 sets the utmost allowable output current rate and T1 disables the output power switch T3, when output load current exceeds the set price.
