Hello!

I have a doubt, and was wondering if you could help me.
I designed a PCB where I place my XMC4500 board. I program the board and then I place it on the PCB, that feeds power to the XMC and receives the signals for ADCs, PWMs, etc.
I am using xSPY and UART communication to debug my code. I put a stream box in an xSPY window and see if the variables take the correct value for each input. For this, I need to use the debugger and put the XMC in run mode.
This is all working well when I feed the XMC via USB port.

My question is, having my PCB feeding the XMC, can I connect it to a USB port and run the debugger safely, or do I risk burning the XMC and/or my USB port?

Thanks so much and its OK to laugh at the question if it is ridiculous 🙂
