Use USB to provide 3.3V power

Jun 02, 2006 6 Replies

Hi All,



I have a power source - USB from PC.



My embedded device is battery powerd, I want to remove this battery, and use PC USB's power.



But it seems that USB is 5V -5V device, am I right?



Should I buy a LDO or ?



Best regards, Boki.



Well, you might start out by asking your service provider to stop its customers trying to use my computer as an e-mail relay.

Agree. I killfile everything from hinet as they cater to spammers. The OP should switch providers if getting an answer matters.

Take a look at the MAX8881. There is a USB example with it in the datasheet of the DS2490.

Thank you very much!

Best regards, Boki.

Hinet is surely a piece of crap.

I asked to join the linux team just recently, becuase I finished my project ahead of them 2 months ahead. But i used a USHORT when i could have used an unsigned char. Sigh, i wish my disk drive was faster....
