USB power on BelaMini should come from Vsys 5V  #9

On the PB:

  1. VBUS.RAW (the 5V in from the µUSB on the PB) is connected through a ferrite bead (FB1) to the VIN.USB signal (broken out on P1.07 and labelled USB1.VIN). This is also connected to ball J16 of the BGA, which is USB0_VBUS. This has the following consequences:
  • if power is supplied through USB0 (µUSB on the PB), then USB1.VIN will also be powered.
  • if power is supplied through USB1 (header), then the AM335x will think that USB0 has power.
  1. the OSD335x checklist (https://octavosystems.com/app_notes/osd335x-schematic-checklist-am335x/) says

USB VBUS Sense Input: USBx_VBUS is a voltage sense input and NOT a power output pin. Check that a valid voltage (>=4.4V) is present on the pin to enable the USBx peripheral.

  1. the TPS65217 can allow large currents from input to the Vsys output, and ranges can be set in software:

  1. Jason K is happy to review the amended design.
