(Note: Although not required for the HS USB port operation, it is recommended to check 
JP11, JP12 and JP13 have a jumper in position 1-2 to enable Ethernet operation and 
availability of the I/O at the Expansion connector D8.) 
 
7.3  Host Expansion Header (J14) 
This header provides connectivity from the LPC546x8/540xx/54S0xx target to a remote 
Host, peripherals or other devices. Table 4 shows the connections.

This connector shares SPI interface signal connections with the SPI bridge function (i.e. 
connection from the LPC546x8/540xx/54S0xx to the Link2 Debug Probe); only one of 
these functions may be used at once. By default jumper JP6 is open, connection the 
Flexcomm 3 SPI port to the Link2 device; install JP6 if using the SPI port on J14. 
By default, solder jumpers JS15 and JS16 connect the LPC546x8/540xx/54S0xx

C port to the Link2 device; these may be removed if they will interfere with 
other devices interfaced to J14. Note there are 2.2KΩ pull-up resistors to 3.3V for these 
SDA and SCL connections. 
7.4  PMod Slave Expansion Header 
This header provides connectivity from the LPC546x8/540xx/54S0xx target to PMod 
peripherals or other devices. Table 5 shows the connections.
