Power Management Module
The power management PWB mounts at the rear of the chassis and is inverted, relative to the
other boards; the component side faces the chassis deck. This is a space-saving technique. The
system is contained on a single PWB that interfaces with other boards in the amplifier.
Connection details are given in Table 3.6.
