Can the usb-c port be used to power another device? - bernieke - 12-06-2025

I was thinking of powering a small switch which draws 0.6A at 5V from the usb-c port on a F24, is this possible?

no, can't F24 use port only use for download firmware, no 5v power.

Is there another 5V source I can use on the F24 which can safely provide 0.6A? Maybe the breadboard section or a header pin somewhere?

not suggest you do this way. it will let F24 unstable.
