hi there,
i have a teensy 3.6 and a usb-hub that supports MMT: http://www.uugear.com/product/7-port-usb-hub-for-raspberry-pi/ that i want to use for a usb-midi application.
the uugear hub supports feeding power back to the host, in this case the teensy. is it safe to simply connect the 5v from the 5pin connector of the teensy to the 5v input of the teensy? it seems the host power pin can be switched by software. or is it better to splice up the 5pin connector and connect 5v to the 5v input of teensy directly and leave the 5v host pin unconnected? as i said power will be coming from the hub to the teensy.
cheers for any hints.
