Hello,

Is it safe to power Beagleboard XM rev B with the +5V DC output of PC ATX SMPS 
directly or should a linear regulated 5V supply be used instead to be on the 
safer side?

In other words, does the Beagleboard XM have circuitry to handle 5V SMPS supply 
input ?

I want to be be very sure as the last thing I want is a conked off Beagleboard.

I could use the +12V DC of PC SMPS and put a 5V regulator like L78S05. But that 
would mean additional circuitry, a big heat sink & lot of power wastage.

Thanks & Regards,
Tushar
