Like the previous boards, it doesn't support usb power beyond 5v. This time it's usb-pd proper, but still has that limit.
So It's the same as usual. Most usb supplies out there (majorly phone chargers) won't output much current at 5v, only at higher voltages, thus you need to buy a known-good supply especially just so that the rpi is happy.
And, as happened the last time, the old one is probably not good enough, as current requirements went up.
- nsteel 3y agoOh right, I've never had problems there but I've a good selection of decent power supplies. I've been using my Pi 4 supply with the Pi 5, no problems so far but I am only using one USB device (not a disk...). I can see why they did it but I agree it's pretty annoying. For the record, you can disable the new USB current limitation when using a 3A PSU, supposedly it still functions fine but as always, depends what you are doing.
