 3.0 DESCRIPTION

4.0 TERMINAL POWER

Regulated 5VDC @0.5A is required to power this board

WARNING: Check the polarity and voltage of the external power source and connect
the 5VDC and GND. Overvoltage or reverse-polarity power applied to these terminals can cause
damage to the board, and/or the power source.
