    Hi,

    See, powering options at the Board User's Guide.

    I tried to open the Board User's Guide from TI website to verify, but there seems to be a problem opening it.

    Markel's suggestion, "RTFM" is recommended and supported.

    That said - and if you're unable to find (the fine manual) this issue has (recently) arrived right here - and been detailed by our Amit.

    When all else fails - forum search - targeting external power of your board - may answer...

    CAUTION:  You give no reason for your reluctance to power via USB connector.   If you introduce power incorrectly - and/or w/out full compliance with board's direction - you may cause DAMAGE!   Think very carefully before you do so - great attention to detail is required.   Use of the USB Connector is safe, "no-brainer."

    Hello Guntoju,

    Yes, but with a 5V source only. There is a barrel connector for the 5V source and do note to change the jumper J11 to the connector.

    Regards

    Pardon - but are not we "trading" the convenience, safety & sure availability of USB cable for, "No good reason?"

    I can smell - but not yet see - smoke rising from poster's "mispowered" board.   (I'd bet that sooner - rather than later - J11 will be "forgotten and restored to original position" - and fire-bell will ring...)

    Hello cb1,

    The DK TM4C1924 Guide gives the power supply to be chosen as well (CUI EMSA05300-P6P).

    Wow - that's really quite good.   Always a challenge (we find) to mate the (many) different "barrel" plugs.

    Suddenly the smell of smoke lessens - and fire-bell drops in level.

    That said - not all posters display the discipline to order the correct, mated part - and an unsavory "wire-tack" may well restore that charred smell & sound...
