Page 4: ... Zero2Go works The diagram below gives you the main idea If the input voltage is higher than 5 5V then the DC DC converter will be used otherwise the input voltage will pass through to output The e Latching Switch will maintain the power if system is up and the button on Zero2Go is not tapped or hold Since DC DC converter needs more dropout to work well inputting 5 5 7 0V should be avoided when po...
