Note, that RB500 supports power jack/header for 6..22V, use standart low voltage power supply adapter.
thanks for the answer, but if i put 12v power witch is the better watts for the power supply 1w or 0.5w?
Use at least a 15W power supply, if you’re planning on heavily utilizing the board. The power requirement for just the bare board is something like 6W (check the manual to be sure), so if you add a high power card (SR2/5) you’ll need another 4-6W, and 1-3W for a lower powered card (R52, CM9)
