4.2.3.1 Power Options
Several power options are available to configure the SAMA5D3 Xplained board powering scheme.
The power sources are selected by a set of 0R resistors.
The USB-powered operation is the default configuration. The power source is the USB device port (J6) connected
to a PC or a mini-AB 5V DC supply. The USB supply is sufficient to power the board in most applications if USB
host ports are not used. If USB host ports are used, it is recommended to use a DC supply source.
Schematic diagrams of various power options are illustrated in
Figure 4-4
.

Input Powering Scheme Option Schematic
Note:
USB-powered operation is a good “single cable” solution because it combines powering and board control through a
unique cable. Consequently, it eliminates the need for other wires and batteries. This power option is suitable for most
projects that only require 5 volts at up to 500 mA.
4.2.3.2 Mains Power Adapter
A mains power supply adapter can be used to provide power to the board. A regulated 5V DC supply of typically
2A is required but a current range of 3A is recommended if the USB ports and expansion headers are likely to be
used. It needs a 2.1 mm plug with a center-hot configuration.
If you are using the USB host ports or expansion board Arduino shields, a higher current is required. To supply the
full 500 mA per port, a mains power adapter must be used.
4.2.3.3 VBAT
By default, VDDBU is delivered through the 3.3V node. An optional SuperCap (C41), used for real-time clock
backup, is provided. The board does not come equipped with the SuperCap. When the SuperCap is not installed,
an R185 must be installed. You must make sure that the R185 is removed prior to installing the SuperCap.
