Using a 12 VDC power supply with an XS Board

Q:

Can I use 12VDC for my XS Board power supply?

A:

Yes, as long as you apply the 12 VDC to the J9 power supply jack and your supply has a 2.1mm center-positive plug. Note that a 12 VDC supply will cause more power to be dissipated in the regulators on your board.
