Is there a way to power this Wi-Fi Adapter + Radio using this specific ModalAI UART adapter board?
-
Title says it all. I need to know if we can power both the wi-fi adapter and radio we're using through this specific UART adapter board. Both of them need 5V.

Hi @Raiyan-Alam,
My suggestion: keep the Wi-Fi adapter on USB and feed the RFD900X separately.
You can pull an extra 5V feed using this power module cable, which splices off a 5V red JST SFHR connector:
https://docs.modalai.com/cable-datasheets/#mcbl-00095
Splice from that into the RFD900X's 5V input. For the M0151, don't power the RFD900X off USB but pull it directly from the power module supplying VOXL 2 instead.
