Power Details
A 12VDC (+/- 5%) power supply with a 2.0A output will power any board from the ELI Family. This
allows a common, off-the-shelf power supply such as the
or prototyping across the entire ELI Family. In general, any 12VDC power supply with a 2.1mm
center positive plug will be acceptable if it can provide enough current to power the particular ELI
unit being used.
For volume production applications, the input power can be optimized for your particular ELI unit
and lower capacity power supplies can be used.
On the ELI43-CR, plug power into the (P2) connector. In cases where the barrel connector is not
desired, you can use the alternate power input connector (J8) with supports directly plugging in 20-26
AWG wire with maximum 5A current per contact. The datasheet for this J8 connector (PCB terminal
block - PTSM 0,5/ 2-2,5-H SMD WH R24 – 1814634) can be found at
On ELI43-CR units of Revision ≥3.0 and above, the input power range is expanded from +5 to 24V
DC ± 5% (2.0A) for greater design flexibility.
