Hi everyone,

how much current can I connect to the 5V line on the SSC?
Just want to connect a MatchPort b/g from Lantronix.

Greetings
Daniel

The regulator is rated for 500mA, but it is installed without a heat sink, so we de-rated it to 250mA. The Atom draws around 20mA - 25mA. Bottom line is be careful. If the regulator heats up you could get a burn.
