I found a work around of sorts. Although it can't be powered through the USB port like a lot of the lower powered boards. I was able to power it via a USB to Type M cable, so use my laptop and the existing power socket and it worked fine.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Jan 2013 16:33:14 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/SABRE-Lite-powered-by-USB/m-p/235085#M18487 patkelly18 2013-01-30T16:33:14Z
