Trying to name two different +5V sources on a PCB.
One is switched, the other connected directly to VUSB (USB +5)
Trying to come up with a three letter name (maximum) for each.

+5V, +, VSw ... Suggestions?:confused:
 
Suggestion:

Vusb - usb +5
Vcc - switched power supply

Cared if I asked why you need 2 power supplies?

:D
Use +5V for the switched power supply, and for the USB, "USB" has taken 3 characters... haha..
Can you put just a "V" with a USB logo?
 
+5V, Vcc



Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.

If the switched 5V is feeding the ICs then Vdd is pretty universal. Maybe Vuu for the USB 5V line.....
A confusing one for the 5V USB would be 5uV :D
 
Ahh I like U5V I can use +5V for the rest, thanks Gayan. And no they aren't wee animals :)
Here's something for the eyes...
