6.2 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 connecter contains a number of I/O pins that can be used with most of the EFM8UB1 Universal Bee's features. Additionally, the
VMCU, 3V3 and 5V power rails are also exported.
The figure below shows the pin assignment of the expansion header. With the exception of a few pins, most of the expansion header's
pins are the same as those on the EFM32 Gecko or EFM32 Tiny Gecko starter kits.
