Power supply
The Kvaser Memorator Light can be powered from the CAN side and from the USB
side.
The device does not have internal galvanic isolation, therefore supplying power on
both sides at the same time may damage the device unless both power sources
have the same electric ground potential.
Operating the Kvaser Memorator Light in logger mode requires power to be
supplied from the CAN side. The device does not function as a logger when
powered from the USB connection.
When power is supplied on the CAN side, use pin 9 for V+ and pin 3 for ground as
shown in Figure 4. The recommended supply power should be in the range of 6 V
to 35 V DC although the device can tolerate an input voltage up to 48 V DC. The
power requirement is approximately 1 W (maximum).
