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.

3.5. Xplained Pro Power Header
The power header can only be used as supply for external peripherals or extension boards. Care must be
taken not to exceed the total current limitation of the on-board regulator when using the 3.3V pin.
