I've set a goal to restore a dead PSU from an IBM 330 series PC. PSU blew up about 15 years ago and I kept its guts in the attic this whole time, knowing that it would be hard to get such PSU in the future. Somehow I've resisted the urge to salvage it for parts all these years.
After thoroughly inspecting it, I found bunch of faulty parts, two of which were replaced by me at some point and now it makes me doubt that those were the correct ones. In place of IC4 there was a transistor in TO-220 package and in place of IC5 - a 7805 voltage regulator. I think that both IC4 and IC5 were supposed to be 78xx series voltage regulators, but I'm not 100% certain about that, thus I need that somebody would report correct part numbers, before I place an order for all of them.
The PSU was made by ACBEL, model - API-3189I, it was used in many models of IBM 330/350 series.
