danybr Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Which is the maximum current delivered by the pin 5v of the gpio in an Orange Pi LITE? I would like to connect on it some sensors that needs 5v power supply. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Attention ...Is differen on RPI) https://linux-sunxi.org/Orange_Pi_Lite Hi, thanks for replay. With a search on Google I had already arrived at this site but honestly I did not find answer to my question. What do you mean with "RPI"? Raspberry PI?

Igor Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 He mentioned that be careful when reading pins on header since it is turned around on this board ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danybr Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 I already know how GPIO pins are mapped on Orange Pi Lite, seeing this: https://cdn.instructables.com/FMJ/ONNZ/ISCB1XXO/FMJONNZISCB1XXO.MEDIUM.jpg?width=614 OK, now: Which is the max value of current that can be erogated by 5v pin of the gpio in an Orange Pi LITE?

And if you're talking about GPIO pins 2 and 4 then they're directly connected to DC-IN (you can even power Orange Pis through these pins and any of the GND pins on the header) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to connect on it some sensors that needs 5v power supply. 5V GPIO pins on OPI LITE are directly connected to 5V power in socket and also to USB 5V without protection. I've even been back-feeding power through one of the USB-ports. You can probably safely draw some <1000mA powering your sensors ( not actuators....) from the GPIO-pins, just make sure to use a decent power supply for the board. Best of luck.
