PWR_JACK
This connector is used to provide additional power supply to your target device (the device that is
connected to USB_HOST). If your target draws more than 350mA of current you might consider using
the power jack. The maximum tested current that USB-ISO can provide with a capable external power
supply is 750A. If you have both external power supply provided and USB cable in USB_DEVICE
connector the maximum current available would raise to 1A.
This power jack is not isolated from the USB_HOST connector (the personal
computer is always protected, however, the power supply and the device
connected to the USB_HOST might influence each other in case of fault).
The voltage you need to provide to the power jack is in the range of 8V to 15V DC. The power jack
can't work with AC voltage. Make sure the voltage you provide is not more than 15V DC.
The power jack used is the typical DC barrel jack one used by Olimex in most of our products. More
