If this is indeed the same part, then it looks like 12V is the max. (Figure
1 of the datasheet is a little confusing, I think the labels Vdd and Vcc are
reversed... In figure 2, they appear correctly.)

| I investigated this issue a while back an have taken apart all four of my RCX's (1.0 w. adapter, 1.0 w/o adapter, and 2 2.0's from an RIS1.5 and and RIS2.0). They all have internal voltage regulators. I've written the number down somewhere on this (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
