M5camera supply.



  • May be a silly question but,
    Can i use both the USB and grove connection to supply power to the camera at the same time?



  • Yes, it is. But be careful that you must ensure the supply of USB and GROVE must be common-ground and the supply can not be too high. Otherwise, the power chip of M5Camera will be burnt.

    Ah, there in lies the problem,
    I was going to use the USB to draw power from the laptop and the Grove to draw power from an auxiliary battery pack.
