Power 2 12v devices on Arduino UNO

Hi,

I have an Arduino UNO and 2 devices that needs to be attached in it both are 12v. The first device is already connected on VIN & GND but I need to connect another one can I just solder them together like connecting the VIN of the the 2 devices plug it on my arduino? Sorry I'm really new to this hardware stuffs :slight_smile:

Yes.

Do you mean VIN on the power header, or are you calling the barrel jack connector VIN?
The power header is after the reverse polarity protection diode, that diode has a 1 amp limit.
If you connect before going into the barrel jack there is no limit.

I have an Arduino UNO and 2 devices ...

It would help to be more specific about these devices. What are they? Motors? Lights? Relays? And some technical specs would help.

CrossRoads:
Yes.

:grin: I'm not really very familiar with technical stuffs but I'll try to use your suggestion. Thanks for your reply
