Info: External power is required when 500mA from a USB connector is not enough to power
the board with possible extension boards.
3.4. Xplained Pro Headers and Connectors
3.4.1. Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header
All Xplained Pro kits have one or more dual row, 20-pin, 100mil extension header. Xplained Pro MCU
boards have male headers, while Xplained Pro extensions have their female counterparts. Note that all
pins are not always connected. All connected pins follow the defined pin-out description in Table 3-4
Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header on page 9.
The extension headers can be used to connect a variety of Xplained Pro extensions to Xplained Pro MCU
boards or to access the pins of the target MCU on Xplained Pro MCU boards directly.
