4. Connectors
4.1 Breakout Pads
Most of the EFM32's GPIO pins are available on two pin header rows at the top and bottom edges of the board. These have a standard
2.54 mm pitch, and pin headers can be soldered in if required. In addition to the I/O pins, connections to the different power rails and
ground are also provided. Note that some of the pins are used for kit peripherals or features, and may not be available for a custom
application without trade-offs.
The figure below shows the pinout of these "breakout pads", as well as the pinout of the "Expansion Header" situated on the right-hand
side of the board. The expansion header is further explained in the next section. The breakout pad connections are also printed in silk
screen next to each pin for easy reference.

4.2 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 connector contains a number of I/O pins that can be used with most of the EFM32 Giant Gecko GG11's features. Additionally, the
VMCU, 3V3 and 5V power rails are also exported.
The connector follows a standard which ensures that commonly used peripherals such as an SPI, a UART and an I2C bus are available
on fixed locations in the connector. The rest of the pins are used for general purpose I/O. This allows the definition of expansion boards
that can plug into a number of different Silicon Labs starter kits.
The figure below shows the pin assignment of the expansion header for the EFM32 Giant Gecko GG11 Starter Kit. Because of limita-
tions in the number of available GPIO pins, some of the expansion header pins are shared with kit features.
