I figured just blindly hooking 5V up to the 5V line on usb1 was the wrong thing to do as I figured this possibly connected internally to usb0. I don't wish to supply 5V power to my laptop's host.
I'll investigate the parts mentioned of course, but I note they are all SMD parts and there's little in the way of through-hole parts. In my project, I want to be able to hook a USB cable up to the micro-USB port on the PocketBeagle… I'll probably hook a micro-USB to panel-mount USB-B cable for this purpose. I've wired up everything in accordance to the Fritzing diagram, with a modification for the fact I'm using a USB-A connector. The peripheral in this case is a Lattice IceStick FPGA demo board. Both will be mounted inside a case with only the micro-USB port on the PocketBeagle being exposed. https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/7698511514102731851.jpg shows the connections on the veroboard PCB… and https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/7133731514102836596.jpg shows the other end of that cable. As can be seen, while a SMD solution isn't impossible to work-in, it'd be inconvenient. Is there a suitable (perhaps using discrete diodes) alternative using through-hole parts? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
