Jupiter SDR front panel GPIO headers to power the ADIS16576

Thread Summary

The user inquires about powering an ADIS16576 IMU from the Jupiter SDR front-panel GPIO 3.3 V rail. The final answer confirms that the 3.3 V rail can deliver up to 200 mA, sufficient for the IMU's 100 mA requirement, and includes an ADP191 load switch for protection.

Hello ADI team,

I would like to ask about the power capability of the Jupiter SDR front-panel GPIO header.

I am planning to interface an ADIS16576 IMU with the Jupiter SDR, and I would like to know whether the 3.3 V supply rail provided on the front-panel GPIO header can directly power the ADIS16576.

According to the IMU requirements, the maximum current consumption may be around 100 mA. Could you please clarify:

1. What is the maximum current that the front-panel GPIO 3.3 V rail can safely provide?
2. Is this 3.3 V rail intended only as a light auxiliary supply for external logic, or can it be used to power a peripheral such as an IMU?
3. If 100 mA is too high for the GPIO header supply, would you recommend using an external 3.3 V regulator/power source instead, while only sharing SPI/GPIO signals with the Jupiter SDR?

My goal is to connect the ADIS16576 through SPI and, if possible, power it from the Jupiter SDR front-panel GPIO header for a compact setup.

Thank you for your help.
