Is this information provided by CTRE, or empirically measured by your team? If this is true, which goes against my current understanding of the VRM, how does the 1.5a continuous split across the 500ma Max Channels, and the 2A max channels on the VRM rails?
Based on my discussions with Mike from CTRE, I was under the impression that each rail supplied (12V and 5V) on the VRM has a max of 2.5A, and that the channels for each rail were limited to 2A, and 500mA, but these were all continuous sources, not momentary.
