the 7-12 volt is the 'raw' power spec. This is converted to 5volt on the board. This is normally the main system power. When you connect 3v3 to the VCC pin the board runs at 3v3. Technically the AVR chip is overclocked at this voltage, but I never have seen an arduino fail doing this.
Try it, what can you lose? You make your system a whole lot simpler, using only 3 volt logic. LP On Thursday, May 29, 2014 9:51:36 PM UTC+2, [email protected] wrote: > > Cool.
