4.2.1 Xplained Pro Standard Extension Headers

The Xplained Pro extension headers EXT1, EXT2, and EXT3 offer access to the I/O of the microcontroller to expand the board, for example, by connecting extensions to the board. These headers are based on the standard Xplained Pro extension header specification. The connections are shown in the table below. The headers have a pitch of 2.54 mm.
