I tried to connect 3.3V External Battery to the MSP432P401R Launchpad to the Pins (3.3v / Gnd) on the Right of the board - it did not work. However, when I connected

  • Hi Antonio,

    according to a specification:

    MCU cannot be supplied by +5V.

    You can use +5V to supply external devices.

    Could you answer to my question I have sent to you on other post?

  • Thank you Tomasz, my doubt was because I read this phrase:
    "Supplying power to the 5V connector supplies the emulator part of the board. The emulator regulates the power to 3.3V and supplies the target via the 3.3V Jumper"
