Re: Wiring Switches to the PSoC board
Since they've now allowed use of other boards, like the on from Cross the Road Electronics...

We'd like to use our PSOC-3 and create an LED feedback system for our Robot Driver Controls. Since we can have up to 8 eight digital output signals we thought this would be useful. (8 LED's at 20mA = 160Ma max)

In the past, on the old IFI system we could only draw about 100mA. However, I am unable to locate any information on the PSOC-3 datasheet telling me how much I can source on those digital outputs.

I know the PSOC-3 being power by USB is only about 500mA on the USB so it is probably much less than that.

Does anyone know or can point me at how much I can draw/source?
Thanks
