Well, a question becomes: why doesn't Paul use voltage regulators on his
5v modules...
Also, why would ∗any∗ module manufacturer require more than one 'in' on
the modules, having a +15, -15, +5, etc.
I'm sure power drain is one concern, but what about 'noise?' Paul,
what's your take on using voltage regulators all over a system?
