According to section 8.6 of the SRM, you can use 2A from the VDD_5V supply (the unswitched raw DC power jack) assuming your power supply is not a limitation. Remember the BeagleBone needs 1A to run as well, so that means you need at least a 3A supply. If you want the switched SYS_5V that comes up when the BeagleBone is turned on, you are limited to 500 mA. -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
