Raspberry Pi 3 problem

[elegendx]

Hello my friends

I have bought Raspberry Pi 3 model B and I installed Rasbian. When I open Chromium Web Browser or Firefox or Processing or Arduino or when I wanna to install something in terminal, my Raspberry Pi makes reboot.
Also, I'm connected over: Logitech Keyboard and mouse with bluetooth, a adapter HDMI to VGA with Display monitor (SyncMaster 920N Samsung), Micro SD Card (SANDISK SDSQXVF-032G-GN6MA 32GB EXTREME MICRO SDXC UHS-I U3 CLASS 10 WITH ADAPTER).
Can I have help us please?

what PSU are you using I recon it is not good enough

I know it is booting but it may help

I forget other problem. I show my desktop Raspbian a symbol yellow voltage.
What is that?
May require more energy. I use PSU my smartphone Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.

The yellow lightning is an indicator that your RaspberryPi doesn't get enough power. You will have to get a better PSU.

The Yellow sign says PSU voltage to low.
It needs a PSU of at least 2,5 A

Official S7 charger is a 2A adaptor as most are now.
It should be fine for the Pi which will be using less than 1A in this setup.
O would try a different cable, that or it's not an official plug charger.

I have a question.
Can I use over 5V and 2,5A?

[bensimmo]

The 5V is the important part, too much and the pi fries, too little and the pi stops.

The current (A) is the max. spec on the PSU. If it's 20A the Pi will still only use what it needs.
BUT it does mean it has the potential to take all 20A (shirt circuit of 5V gpio's for example and the Pi probably wouldn't like that ).

[RaTTuS]

USB is 5V +/- 5% so 4.75V to 5.25V
more amps will not matter [YMMV]

so 2.5A or 5A @ 5V will be good -


use a better usb lead


anything @ 9V will kill it [YMMV]

........BUT it does mean it has the potential to take all 20A (shirt circuit of 5V gpio's for example and the Pi probably wouldn't like that ).

The RPi 3 has a self resetting 'polyfuse' rated at 2.6A hold current & 5.2A trip current. The fuse will not allow more than that.

If I understand, I can use PSU 5V 2,6A or 6A.. Right?

The A+ has similar, i'll ask it why it doesn't work and just whistles now... It still hasn't reset .

Yes.
