Hello everyone,
I am setting up a Sega Naomi 1 board with the Netboot and Raspberry pi, I acquired all the components needed.The naomi board, the net dimm,the Raspberry pi,Capcom I/O board,the Sun power supply with the 3.3 v. I am setting it up to test it before installation. As everyone knows, the I/O board has the jamma edge to wire controls,buttons.
Do i need to install and additional switching power supply to the JAMMA harness which will be connected to the I/O board? Or will the power supply (3.3v,12v,5v) handle everything?

Thanks for your attention!
 
Yes, the capcom IO will need its own power source, the sun PSU will power the naomi separately. Unless you are rigging everything up to run off just the SUN psu, which you can. depending on how and to what you are hooking the setup too, ie. Jamma cab, supergun, just controls/buttons, etc..

Hey,Thanks for the quick response! Thanks for clearing this up.I was unsure,The Naomi setup for this is more complicated that CPS2,NEOGEO MVS!

Oh just one other clarification I though of,its a stupid question,When I install both power supplies,will I have to install two plugs to connect to the outlet or can mod a power strip and wire it to a mounted power switch?

Thanks again!!
 
If it just for testing purposes, I would just plug AC power to each PSU on a switched power strip and use that to turn on/off both psu.
