PA3X and android tablet : how to power it safely?

Post by galettouille »

Hello!
Since I play during a long time, I have to power the tablet. It is connected to the PA3X with an (OTG) USB cable.
I bought a special OTG cable, with a third plug to connect a power supply.

The question is : is it safe for the PA3X?

Thank you!

I'm not sure. Usually the power is needed by the device pluged in the tablet. There is no diode in the OTG-powered cable to prevent the power to go in the two devices.
Is there something in the PA to prevent a feedback power?

i don't think so but first make sure on the otg cable if it has feedback etc.
