I am using the Xbee Regulated Explorer board with the Xbee XSC high-power long-distance module. However, the XSC draws 265 mA of current when transmitting. From the marking on the regulator on the Explorer board, I'm guessing it is a Micrel MIC5205 regulator, which can only supply 150 mA. Is this correct? Also, the RSSI LED on the board connects to Pin 6, which is not RSSI on the XSC module; it is a pin that can put the XSC module into command mode at boot-up. Has anybody had success with the Explorer board and the XSC module? Thanks.
