# Power

The sensor and compute module need to be powered separately.

| Component | Input Voltage                          | Power Draw           |
| --------- | -------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| Compute   | 2S-6S via XT-30 / 5 VDC via USB-C port | 12 W idle, 15 W peak |
| Sensor    | 5 VDC                                  | 10 W idle, 15 W peak |

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Do not power the compute module via XT-30 and USB-C simultaneously.**
{% endhint %}

The USB-C port on the compute module does not support USB-C Power Delivery. It requires a 5V DC power source.

{% hint style="success" %}
Sensor and compute module have adequate power sources.
