ATX Bench Power Supply

This is a case for a bench power supply that uses a standard ATX computer power supply and a DPS 5005. I really wanted to make a cheap bench power supply for use with my electronics project. This design allows you to use the 12v, 5v, 3.3v from the ATX PSU and the DPS 5005 for a variable output from 0-11.1V. The DPS 5005 gives you constant voltage and current modes, as well as various protection features.

I hot glue the led, usb jack and nuts in place. Then used quick disconnects for the on/off switch and ring terminals for the banana jacks. The led and usb connections were soldered.

Parts List:


DPS 5005
Banana Plug Jack
On/Off Switch
Female USB Socket

I got these at Home Depot, but here are some examples for reference.
