{{asm-text}} '''pwr enable''' signal is keeps high to VBat batch voltage. It keeps the voltage regulators actives of the CANSAT-BASE and the MCU-Board. Tie this signal to ground to disable the voltage regulators on both board.

The convenient place of the '''pwr enable''' pads allows you to control this feature with just a piece of wire to connect the both pads together.
+
+
It is also possible to mount a switch or a jumper on the pads.

{{asm-text}} '''en''' signal controls the voltage regulator of the MCU board. It is maintain high to VSYS on the MCU board. When set LOW, the MCU voltage regulator get disabled.
