[0027] In this embodiment, the device offers multiple power supply options when plugged into a PXI chassis. Power is supplied via the 5V input of the J1 connector; when plugged into a PXIe chassis, it receives 12V power via the XJ4 connector 2. As a single board, it receives 12V power from an external input via the two-pin auxiliary power interface. Three power lines are fed into the board, each equipped with anti-backfeed diodes to ensure the safety of other power supplies and devices.
