#99461 - Re: 2 Ports.
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Thats a nice idea stealing power from 2nd usb port and using Ijaz's circuit will give isolation.


There is a dead simple way to isolate then - unplug the laptop from the mains during programming :)


USB unplugged from Mains not the micro board connected to machine sensors and other devices. There is still possibility of damage.

When a laptop is running on batteries disconnected from mains isnt there risk of diffrence ground potentials of micro and laptop being too high. Just a wild idea came in my mind. Please correct if I am wrong.

Thanks & Regards,
