I've got a development board that uses a 5V, 300mA power supply.
Of course, I have the board, but the power supply is nowhere to be found.
I do have a lab-type supply that has a 2-20V, 2A supply on it.
If I set the voltage to 5V, there shouldn't be any harm to the development board, right?
If I'm remembering my 'schooling' right, since the board only draws 300mA, it should be ok. The supply isn't sending 2A to the circuit, it's just capable of delivering that much current. Correct?
The rust on my electronics skills became really apparent when looking at this.....
