Jetson NANO power problem!!!

Chuitoto
Chuitoto over 3 years ago

Hi! we are doing a project need to power up jetson NANO with a 5V 3A capable pwoer bank. Since our Jetson NANO board needs 12V, we add a boost converter in our design.
the logic flow is like this:

PowerBank 5V  ->  5Vin boost converter 12Vout  ->  12V jetson NANO

The problem is when we run some code on Jetson NANO, it's shut down unexpectedly...

We checked the V and I in both path (both PowerBank to Boost && Boost to Jetson) and we found out that the power loss is really high, it hit 50% loss

    Hi, You may have fried it. Jetson nano uses 5V, it doesn't use 12V.

    If S is correct then toast you might be. Ouch! I have yet to encounter a micro USB connector using a 12VDC supply.
