15/49 UM1907 Hardware layout and configuration 48 1. If more than 500 mA current is needed by the board, the PC may be damaged or current can be limited by the PC. As a consequence the board is not powered correctly. 2. 500 mA will be requested at the enumeration, so there is a risk that the request is rejected and enumeration does not succeed if the PC cannot provide such current. 6.4 Clock sources Up to 3 clock sources as described belo ...
