Can the Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect be powered by 3.3 V input instead of 5 V input? I know that it operates on 3.3 V, but wonder if it needs 5 V for any of its peripherals. I would like to run it by supplying 3.3 V directly from a battery and a 3.3 V buck converter.

I hooked up a battery and a 3.3 V buck converter. That 3.3 V supply is connected to the 3.3 V pin on the board and it works just fine. BTW, I disconnect this approach when plugging in the USB for programming as it could have an issue with it's internal regulator trying to create 3.3. V from 5 V on …
