Hello, this is My first time posting in the Arduino Forums. I'm pretty new to this stuff, I have been researching it and I just bought a (Arduino nano 3.0 ATMEGA328P) and I was wondering if i need some sort of special power supply for it? Or do I just make one myself i looked it up and i couldn't find anything, all i could find was people making a Power Supply with Arduino xD Thanks in advance.
Hello,
look here:
When you have more questions please post again.

You can run the nano off the power from the USB port.
If you want it to run without being connected to the computer then you have to supply power between 7 and 12V to the Vin pin. This can come from a external supply like a wall wart or mains adapter, or batteries.
Okay Thanks Guys
