If you’re using the USB-C® connector you must power it with 5 V.

The board can be powered via the VIN pin, supporting a range between 6-24 V. The VIN pin is also connected to the DC-jack (barrel plug connector).

When powered via the VIN pin, you are using the onboard regulator to bring down the voltage to 5V, which means that the 5 V pin can provide up two 1.2 A. Keep in mind that this voltage regulator is also powering the RA4M1, and the current consumed by the chip can vary from 1 mA to nearly 40 mA.

When powered via USB, you are bypassing the onboard voltage regulator completely. In this case, the 5 V pin can provide up to 2 A without damaging the board.
