Important Usage Notes

Note: The AM261x LaunchPad requires a 5V, 3A power supply to function. A 5V, 3A power supply is not included in the kit and must be ordered separately. The Belkin USB-C Wall Charger is known to work with the LaunchPad and supplied type-C cable. For more information on power requirements refer to Section 2.2.
Note: The AM261x SoC (U1) on the LaunchPad can reach and exceed temperatures of 55℃ during high power consumption use cases as per internal testing. This user guide statement is to alert users to this temperature condition.
LP-AM261
Note: External Power Supply or Power Accessory Requirements:
  • Nominal output voltage: 5VDC
  • Max output current: 3000mA
  • Power Delivery
Note: TI recommends using an external power supply or accessory which complies with applicable regional safety standards such as (by example) UL, CSA, VDE,CCC,PSE, etc.
