USB connection to 5v rail

catphish opened this issue · comments

On the Gen2 tesla board (V5aB3), USB VBUS appears to be connected to the 5v rail. I believe this may be a mistake, as it will create a short between the 5v supply from the PC and the 5v supply on the board. Is there a scenario when this VBUS would be used to power the board, or would it be better to remove the connection?
