Powering UP Board Through 40-Pin

amueggenborg

I am looking into using the UP Board (UP-CHT01-A10-0464) and I have a question about powering the device:

I would like to power the device (+5V) through the 40-pin connector, but it appears that there may be a polyfuse in series to the rest of the board. Is it possible to get a schematic of the power circuit or a description of the power circuit? And, if there is a polyfuse, would it be possible to get a part number?

Hi,

You can power the UP board directly from the 40 pins on the 5V and 3.3V, you can supply 1A to each pin, there is no polyfuse designed.

A question regarding this.. is this also true for the upSquared?

I know this thread is old, but I was wondering, can more than 1A be supplied through the pin? Is the pin connected directly to the 5V supply or is there something in between?
