No, a battery can't be charged and discharged at the same time. If a battery is connected to a charger delivering 1 A and a load drawing 3 A, then the battery will be discharged at 2 A.

I have a circuit that can be powered by either USB-C, a LiPo battery or an external power supply. Because of a small footprint I would like the battery and external power
The wall charger output amperage should exceed the power bank''s output amperage; The input current should be greater than the discharge current; The power bank capacity should be higher than your device''s capacity. Normally, you wouldn''t take two adapters with you to charge the power bank and any device at the same time. However, there
I just connected my new board for testing and I was immediately reminded of the power supply issue. With the main 12V battery disconnected from the board, I plugged the Arduino into USB to load a simple "hello world" blinky program and as soon as USB was plugged in the VIN power indicator LED on my board lit up as well as the 5V Power
The Arduino Uno can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply. The power source is selected automatically. Put the external power through a voltage divider or transistor-based inverter and into an analog (divider) or digital (inverter) pin and check the appropriate value from the pin. Note that this does not require
Thinking the power supply had failed for some reason I connected a different supply and everything worked again. But then I saw the 12V and 24V leds on the Arduio dimming. At this point I disconnected the USB cable (by mistake, instead of disconnecting the power supply). However, to my suprise the power leds came back on and the sketch kept
Seems either can be powered via USB or External 5 Volt Supply. Question is: Can you connect both at the same time? Below is the circuit connecting the USB 5 Volts and the External 5 Volt Supply to the internal circuits on the ESP32 Dev Board...
Is it possible connecting both a serial USB (for uploading and serial.print) and the external 24V supply (for powering sensors) can cause problems. I had been creating a sketch like this without any issues on my laptop.

After a few days of reduced sun, my battery array can get low. I just bought the NOCO Genius GEN2 20 Amp 2-Bank On-Board Battery Charger. I plan to hook up each 6V series to this charger providing a potentials 20 amps
However, you should account for what happens when you plug an external power source in the same loop as a battery that might be a different voltage. If you''re going to
Part 7. 12V power supply vs. 12V battery: what''s the difference? A 12V power supply and a 12V battery may both deliver the same voltage, but they serve very different purposes. A 12V power supply is usually AC-powered, providing a steady, continuous current ideal for stationary devices that need a constant power source.
Is it possible connecting both a serial USB (for uploading and serial.print) and the external 24V supply (for powering sensors) can cause problems. I had been creating a
The Arduino Uno can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply. The power source is selected automatically. Put the external power through a voltage divider or transistor-based inverter and
if you want just plugs it in, it''s ok but Arduino board will chose one and usb has priority to other power source. ***** Very important :***** if you are controlling other circuits, that are connected to an external power supply, with your Arduino and connecting it to your PC''s usb, Arduino will have potential difference and it will cause current flow that will damage your PC
I have a circuit that can be powered by either USB-C, a LiPo battery or an external power supply. Because of a small footprint I would like the battery and external power supply (5-18V) to share the same 2-pin port. I''m looking for a way to: charge the battery if USB-power is present; use the battery as power input if no USB-power is present
Portable equipment that can operate from a battery pack or an external power source (such as a wall-adapter or external supply) needs to be able to smoothly switch between the two power sources. This application note
No, it is not dangerous to plug in your docking station and your external laptop charger to the laptop at the same time. Your laptop''s power delivery will have onboard power sensing and switching and should be designed to prevent contention between sources. It is designed to draw from the source which provides more power (usually the power
You can have Vin/Barrel jack and USB connected at the same time. As long as Vin/Barrel jack is higher than 7.5V, the auto-select circuit will continue to power with the
Meanwhile the battery may have a BMS (battery management system) to control the charging (prevent overcharging) and to prevent / shut-off discharge when the voltage drops to a certain level. e.g. Your phone charger is not a charger - it''s a 5 V power supply (although it''s more complex in recent years).
External (non-USB) power can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or battery. The adapter can be connected by plugging a 2.1mm center-positive plug into the board''s power jack. Leads from a battery can be inserted in the Gnd and Vin pin headers of the POWER connector.
Portable equipment that can operate from a battery pack or an external power source (such as a wall-adapter or external supply) needs to be able to smoothly switch between the two power sources. This application note describes a circuit (Figure 1) that switches power sources with good efficiency and without switching noise.

The Arduino Uno can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply. The power source is selected automatically. That quote from the web page is ambiguous.... it doesn''t actually say that both can be plugged in at the same time. It can be taken to mean you can use either, and that the Uno will sense which one is present. It''s
You can have Vin/Barrel jack and USB connected at the same time. As long as Vin/Barrel jack is higher than 7.5V, the auto-select circuit will continue to power with the external adapter. Two notes: You should not connect a regulated 5V source to the 5V pin and power from USB at the same.

I now have the same issue: power supply via USB and external 5V power supply at the same time. To safely avoid a conflict between the power supply via USB and 5Vext, I removed the pin for the supply voltage on the USB socket on the PCB: unsoldered the USB socket, removed the 5V pin on the socket and soldered the socket back on.
However, you should account for what happens when you plug an external power source in the same loop as a battery that might be a different voltage. If you''re going to try to have them manually switch then you''ll need an external circuit (perhaps using a transistor that shuts off the battery when the power supply is active, with
Yes, you can simultaneously connect external power supply and USB. As explained in one of the answers, that you linked, the Arduino chooses it''s power input through the supplied voltage on Vin/barrel jack. Vin has no direct connection to the VUSB, so the USB port will not get any voltage from the external supply, thus it does not get

Connecting or disconnecting the USB supply in this case will not make a difference, so you can have both power supplies connected simultaneously, only when the power input drops below the specified level (about 6.6V+0.6V=7.2V), the USB will start powering the board. +1 Excellent answer: very detailed, precise and didactic.

Put the external power through a voltage divider or transistor-based inverter and into an analog (divider) or digital (inverter) pin and check the appropriate value from the pin. Note that this does not require powering the Uno from external power, only connecting the grounds. Ok. Thank you for the answer.
The power source is selected automatically. That quote from the web page is ambiguous.... it doesn't actually say that both can be plugged in at the same time. It can be taken to mean you can use either, and that the Uno will sense which one is present. It's not 100% clear that it means it will select from two being plugged in at once.
But if the USB 5 volts is greater than the External Supply current would flow from the USB 5 volts to the External 5 Volt supply. I haven't designed circuits in a long time but shouldn't they have placed a diode in series with each supply before connecting them together? Actual diagram is here...
