USB-C and Power over 5Vin at same time

Hello, I'm new to the forum and have been searching the internet for days for an answer to the following question:

Can I supply the ESP32 S3 DevKitC 1 N16R8 with power from a power bank via the 5V pin and AT THE SAME TIME connect a USB device or a computer via the USB-C port.

The USB-C port will then also have 5V.

Will the board recognize this?

I hope you understand what I mean.

I'm happy for any help.

THANKS!

Greetings from Germany

Yes, DevkitCs have a reverse current protection diode, so that should just work.
