NVIDIA Jetson Nano

I plan to cover this in future postings, however from the NVIDIA Jetson Nano User's Guide:
```
The carrier board consumes between 0.5W (at 2A) and 1.25W (at 4A) with no peripherals attached
```
There are two options to power the Jetson Nano:
1. 5V 4A Switching Power supply to the carrier board barrel jack. (A jumper is required to turn off the USB power option)
2. 5V 2.5 A USB power supply

However, I have yet to get the board to fully power on with any of the multiple power supplies I have on hand. All I get is the NVIDIA Splash Screen. Others have posted something similar on the NVIDIA forums which now includes me as well.

That seems like an odd way to spec power consumption. Maybe to account for power regulators in the path?

Please post how you resolve your problem as I’ll be getting one in a few weeks.
