Programmable power supply for external/target devices

The PiEBridge has a built-in programmable power supply for external/target devices. The user can set the voltage of 2.5-5V (accuracy not less than 2%) with a current not more than 300mA by command from SBCs (e.g., Raspberry Pi).

Users can set this programmed voltage or "ground" to any pin of the output connectors using the built-in 3*10 pin matrix and jumpers.

Connectors

The PiEBridge extension board has built-in 6-pin IDC (2x3 0.1") and 10-pin IDC (2x5 0.1") output connectors.
We recommend using four basic adapters to connect to target systems (e.g., for flashing) via these connectors:


IDC6-IDC6

IDC6-TC2030

(Tag Connect 6 pins)


IDC10-IDC10


IDC10-TC2050

(Tag Connect 10 pins)
