Abstract

An output architecture of a power supply is disclosed, wherein the power supply includes an input portion to obtain input power and a conversion circuit board connecting to the input portion to convert the input power into output power of different voltage potential. The conversion circuit board includes plural power output areas with different preset output voltages, and after selecting the output standard, the power output areas connect to at least one power extension board via plural electrical conductive elements, so as to provide the power extension board the output power, and the power extension board has plural output wires connected to a load. Through the architecture described above, the corresponding output wires can be selected after the output standard is selected for connecting to the power extension board, and then, the power extension board is connected to the conversion circuit board.
