Adp-160er Schematic [top] Jun 2026

Repair Tip: Schottky diodes are a common failure point. A shorted output diode will blow the primary fuse. Test them with a multimeter in diode mode.

The high-voltage DC now feeds the primary winding of the main transformer (T1) and the drain pin of the main switching MOSFET (Q1, often an 11N60 or similar).

⚠️ The large bulk capacitor on the primary side can hold lethal voltages ( ~400V DC ) for hours or even days after the unit has been unplugged from the wall.

The MOSFETs chop the high-voltage DC through the main step-down transformer. High-speed Schottky diode rectifiers or synchronous rectification MOSFETs on the secondary side smooth this into the high-amperage 12V rail. Adp-160er Schematic

+4.8V to +5V DC (designed for low-power idle states)

When a repair is not viable, replacing the ADP-160ER is the best solution.

Toggle the high-voltage DC through the primary winding of the main transformer at high frequencies (typically 50kHz to 100kHz). Main Transformer: Steps down the energy to 12V. Repair Tip: Schottky diodes are a common failure point

A Schottky diode outputs a clean +4.8V DC standby voltage to the motherboard. 4. The Main Power Circuit (+12V Rail)

When diagnosing a dead ADP-160ER, tracking components logically through the circuit path prevents misdiagnosis. Symptom 1: No Standby Light (Completely Dead Console)

Check for shorts between the Drain and Source pins of the primary switching transistors. The high-voltage DC now feeds the primary winding

Driven by an IC43 control network and an independent optocoupler array ( IC51, IC52, IC55 ). This isolation barrier cleanly separates high-voltage primary grounds from sensitive secondary motherboard grounds. Pinout Configuration & Control Logic

The high-voltage side handles the incoming AC power (100V–240V). Typically a T3.15A / 250V ceramic fuse. Bridge Rectifier: Converts AC to pulsed DC.

Now I will write the article. is a detailed technical guide to the ADP-160ER power supply unit, the heart of the Sony PS4 Slim. While the official schematic for the ADP-160ER is not publicly available, its close relative, the ADP-160CR, shares a nearly identical design. This guide will show you how to use the widely-available ADP-160CR schematic to troubleshoot and repair your PS4 Slim’s power supply.
