Hello Everyone,
Im working with Luckfox Pico Ultra W board.
I want to use external 5V power supply to board instead using power supply from type C port.
I tested with by wiring the 5V power supply to P1.2 and P1.6 pins, but seem the board cant run.
Please help to review and show me a solution .
Thank you for yours support.

Hello, for P1.2 connected to 5V and P1.6 connected to GND, there is no problem. You need to confirm whether your power supply supports 5V with a current of more than 500mA.

Hello Crocodile
Thanks for your confirmdation.
One more question, Can I use both external supply and USB same time ?
Pluggin USB cable while the board have 5V external.
Thank you.

When using both an external power supply and a USB interface for power supply simultaneously, it is necessary to ensure that the GND of the two power supplies is the same or connected. Not sharing the same ground may cause the development board to work unstably

Hello Crocodile
Yes, I tested, It worked good.
Thank you.
