4 Connecting the board
Connect a USB cable (Standard-A to Mini-B, or Mini-AB) between the board and a
PC or a USB power supply to power it up. That is all that is needed. When power is
applied, the power/status LED will light up green, and the RGB LED will light up blue.
WARNING
Do not power the board without having a jumper installed or an
ammeter mounted across the pins of the power measurement header
located next to the USB connector. Otherwise, the device may be
damaged by power sourcing through the I/O pins. The power
measurement header location is shown in
Figure 3-1
.
