ATX 1.x (20-pin ATX)
ATX 20-Pin Power Supply Connector
This is the standard 20-pin ATX power connector used by many systems. It supplies all core system voltages including +3.3V, +5V, +12V, and -12V, along with necessary control signals such as PWR_OK and PS_ON. It is available on typical ATX power supplies from the late 1990s to early 2000s.
Pinout:
| Pin | Signal | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +3.3V | +3.3 VDC |
| 2 | +3.3V | +3.3 VDC |
| 3 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 4 | +5V | +5 VDC |
| 5 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 6 | +5V | +5 VDC |
| 7 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 8 | PWR_OK | Power good |
| 9 | +5VSB | +5V standby |
| 10 | +12V | +12 VDC |
| 11 | +3.3V | +3.3 VDC |
| 12 | -12V | -12 VDC |
| 13 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 14 | PS_ON | Power supply on |
| 15 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 16 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 17 | GND | Chassis ground |
| 18 | -5V | -5 VDC (legacy) |
| 19 | +5V | +5 VDC |
| 20 | +5V | +5 VDC |
Notes:
+5VSB(Pin 9) provides standby voltage used by power management features.PS_ON(Pin 14) is a control line used to turn on the PSU via motherboard logic.PWR_OK(Pin 8) signals when power is stable and within spec.-5V(Pin 18) is used for ISA bus compatibility and is typically unused in modern systems.
