Expansion Header - Silicon Laboratories SLWRB4150A User Manual

4.2 Expansion Header

On the right hand side of the board an angled 20-pin expansion header is provided to allow connection of peripherals or plugin boards.
The connector contains a number of I/O pins that can be used with most of the EFR32 Mighty Gecko's features. Additionally, the
VMCU, 3V3 and 5V power rails are also exported.
The connector follows a standard which ensures that commonly used peripherals such as an SPI, a UART and an I2C bus are available
on fixed locations in the connector. The rest of the pins are used for general purpose IO. This allows the definition of expansion boards
that can plug into a number of different Silicon Labs starter kits.
The figure below shows the pin assignment of the expansion header for the EFR32MG 2400/868 MHz 13 dBm Dual Band Radio Board.
Because of limitations in the number of available GPIO pins, some of the expansion header pins are shared with kit features.
