light, near heaters, or exposed to moisture, dust or dirt.
Micronics recommends the following environmental speci-
fications:

Power Supply Specifications
The M6DPi requires a 3.3Volt AT power supply. You can
purchase this power supply from most computer vendors.
When purchasing this power supply, ask for a (Split Volt-
age) 3.3 volt AT power supply with the traditional AT
connectors to the system board.
This power supply will have the traditional P8 and P9 for
standard AT sources and P10 and P11 for the 3.3 volt
source. Make sure the power supply also has a +5 volt
Standby Power and Soft Power connection (P13), which is
the ATX standard. In addition, it would be advisable to
request an extra +5 volt source for P12.
