=== Power Adapter ===

The W520 comes with a special [http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-76762.html 170W AC adapter (P/N 0A36227)] that is currently not shipped with any other Thinkpad. Note that it is different from the W700 [http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70684 170W AC adapter (P/N 41R4421)]. The W520 AC adapter is larger but lighter than the W510 135W AC adapter.

All newer (20V) Thinkpad AC adapters have a compatible plug with the W520, but not all of them will work due to power constraints. Some work but the W520 will reduce throttle its CPU/GPU. The following table shows which AC adapters can be used:

CDC slot

2006-04-07T21:50:30Z

The CDC (Communications Daughter Card) slot is an internal expansion slot found in modern ThinkPads.

It is not meant for customer upgrades.<br>
Different CDC slots exist for different functions and different form-factor cards, so you cannot just install any CDC adapter into a CDC slot.

The types of CDC cards you can use in your system is dependent on the BIOS. If you insert a Bluetooth IV with 56K Modem from an R52 system (for instance) and place it into an R51 system which only had the Modem Daughter Card, the system refuses to boot up and displays Invalid Daughter Card.

If anyone knows more details, please elaborate.
