Javelin Stamp Hardware
Table 1.1 shows the Javelin Stamp’s specifications. Note that the onboard voltage regulator
can accept between 6 and 24 V
DC
and output up to 150 mA of current. Since the Javelin
consumes approximately 60 mA, you have 90 mA available for other uses. Keep in mind that
if you are utilizing the full 60 mA of total I/O pin source/sink that only 30 mA is left over for
powering peripheral devices using the Javelin’s Vdd pin. On the other hand, if all the I/O pins
are being used for input, 90 mA can be used drawn from the Javelin’s voltage regulator output
(Vdd) for peripherals. If in doubt, use an external 5 V regulator for your peripherals.
