Hi,
I am a very happy new owner of a Teensy 3.1, and all is working perfectly. Currently I am building a project on a breadboard, and the teensy is powered through USB. But soon I will need to move my little project board away from a computer, and use an external power source.
I have bought one of these to power the board: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10804
My question is, how to wire that up to the teensy? Currently my breadboard is setup with 3.3v from the teensy on both power rails, and GND on one side and AGND on the other. Is it as simple as just soldering both the left and right headers to the powerstick and putting it on the board?
ps. I can see that if I want to run the teensy on external power while the USB is connected I need to make some modifications, but that is not the plan. It will be either external power or USB, not both.
