Powering the tx from an LOR header
« on: September 26, 2015, 11:06:50 pm »
I'm trying to power my wireless tx from the J0 header on an LOR board. It has a 5v output and was wondering if anyone knows if it'll run off 5v or if I need to use the 10v pin and put a small DC-DC voltage reducer in line to take it to 6v?

Never mind I went ahead and tried it and it seems to work from the 5v.
Just need to run some test sequences to be for sure.

I ended up having to move it to the 9vdc pin but so far so good.
