- Connectors on top for GND / EN / 5V
- When the EN pin is connected to >2V (5V max) power to the device is turned on.

Example usage

- Simple toggle/slide switch at the end of a (long) cable, connecting 5V to EN to turn on.
- Raspberry Pi/Arduino - Connect GPIO pin to EN (and GND to GND) set GPIO pin to output, turn the pin on to enable power.

The USB Power Switch can be used to control power for many USB powered devices such as Raspberry Pi Zero, Chromecasts, etc.
