Z-Uno shield and power supply

Post by Gbajolet »

Hello everybody,

I have a technical question: I have a Z-uno shield and I want to utilize a 24 volts power supply.
To test my application, I need to modify the software, and for that I need the to transfer the program thru the USB connexion, I am afraid to burn my ZUNO shield, if I connect the USB connector with the 24 volts.
Do you have some experience with this?
Regards
Gilles

The recommendation is to plug off the Z-Uno during the flashing. On the new Shield 2, we added a diode to make sure two powers don't harm

Using a 24-volt power supply with a device designed for a lower voltage, such as the Z-Uno shield, can potentially damage the device if not properly handled. Here are some considerations: geometry dash scratch

Check the specifications: Consult the documentation or specifications of the Z-Uno shield to determine its maximum operating voltage. Ensure that it can handle a 24-volt power supply. If the shield is not designed to work with 24 volts, it is not recommended to connect it directly to the power supply.
