To whoever comes after me: I do not think the 3.3 V rail is accessible in this board. You could tap from the 5 V rail, but in my case I do not think it makes sense. The LM2841 is what is used to convert from 12 V to 5 V, and that seems to be able to handle a max of 300 mA. I have no clue about how much is being used at this point... so I think I'll tap directly from the 12 V power supply.

# Printrboard Rev. D. 3.3 V source

(Asked by: username_0 on 2019-02-22)

I am looking for a 3.3 V power source in the Printrboard Rev. D pins.

I think there should be one somewhere... I do not know how to read the schematics that well.

Also, I am going to connect an HC-06, which draws 45 mA or less during operation. So, I need to know if it safe to get the power from the 3.3 V rail (if I find it).

So, the questions are:

* Which one is the 3.3 V pin?
* And how much current can I draw from it?
