Power Adapter
The W520 comes with a special 170W AC adapter (P/N 0A36227) that is currently not shipped with any other Thinkpad. Note that it is different from the W700 170W AC adapter (P/N 41R4421). The W520 AC adapter is larger but lighter than the W510 135W AC adapter.
Most newer (20V) Thinkpad AC adapters have a compatible plug with the W520, but not all of them will work due to power constraints. The following table shows which AC adapters can be used to run the W520:
| Marketing P/N | Rated power | Works on W520 | Charge while off | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0A36227 | 170W | yes | yes | Official AC adapter for W520 |
| 41R4421 | 170W | no | no | Official AC adapter for W700, different plug diameter |
| 55Y9317 | 135W | yes | yes | Official AC adapter for W510. |
| Various | 90W | no | yes | Battery continues to drain, does not work |
| Various | 65W | no | yes | Battery continues to drain, does not work |
The 135W adapter is sufficient to run the W520 without throttling. The 65W and 90W adapters can only be used to charge the battery while the W520 is not running, that is, powered off, hibernated, or suspended.
